Synopsis

This book strives to provide valuable insights on international students’ mental well-being based on research, promising practices, and practitioners’ experiences. The book is geared toward practitioners, faculty, counselors, and others working with international students at higher education institutions in the United States. In this book, we specifically focus on how various intersecting dimensions of international students’ identities shape their mental well-being and the support or resources they may need. By doing so, we hope to provide a more complex and nuanced picture of international students’ mental well-being to guide practice and inspire future research.
