Keywords:: the importance of higher vocational students' mental health education development methods

In recent years, people pay more and more attention to the mental health of students in higher vocational colleges. Events such as running away, dropping out of school, dropping out of school and even committing suicide and murder caused by psychological problems are on the rise, and the healthy growth of college students has aroused widespread concern in society.

Ideological and political education counselors working in the front line should have knowledge of mental health education and establish a student-oriented concept. Carrying out mental health education for college students is not only an important part of daily education management, but also an unshirkable responsibility.

Psychological counseling should not only maintain students' mental health and prevent mental illness, but also provide timely and effective counseling and education for college students' problems in study, life, making friends, employment and choosing jobs from the perspective of mental health and social adaptation, so as to improve students' psychological quality and social adaptability, thus promoting the realization of school education goals.

Mental health education for higher vocational students is of great significance. How to effectively carry out college students' psychological health education, improve their psychological quality and social adaptability, and help and promote their healthy growth in all aspects is an important topic of student education management in higher vocational colleges in the new period.

First, the importance of vocational college students' mental health education

Ideological and political counselors in higher vocational colleges must be clear about the importance of mental health education for college students. The author believes that its importance is mainly reflected in the following aspects.

(A) Higher vocational students' mental health education is an urgent requirement to strengthen and improve the ideological education of higher vocational students.

Students in higher vocational colleges are in an important period of life development, which is a critical period for the formation of world outlook, outlook on life and values. For college students, they will encounter all kinds of difficulties and contradictions in the process of growing up, which will lead to troubles and conflicts, and eventually form all kinds of psychological problems. These psychological problems are intertwined with their world outlook, outlook on life and values. Therefore, fundamentally speaking, solving students' psychological problems should be based on establishing a correct world outlook, outlook on life and values. Therefore, strengthening and improving the ideological education of students in higher vocational colleges should be carried out from the aspects of ideals and beliefs, behavior formation, mental health, ideology and morality, so that mental health education and ideological education complement each other and promote each other.

(B) Higher vocational college students' mental health education is an urgent requirement for higher vocational colleges to comprehensively promote quality education and cultivate high-quality professionals.

Higher vocational colleges shoulder the glorious mission of cultivating high-quality professionals, and the effect of college students' mental health education determines the success or failure of talent education in colleges and universities. High-quality and high-skilled talents should have good ideological and moral quality, scientific and cultural quality, professional skills and physical quality, as well as good psychological quality.

(C) Higher vocational students' mental health education is student-oriented, which meets the urgent requirements of students' growth.

Adhering to the people-oriented principle, constantly meeting students' various development needs, promoting students' all-round growth, and becoming qualified builders and reliable successors of the cause of Socialism with Chinese characteristics are the starting point and the end result of all work in higher vocational colleges. As a special group bearing high expectations of society and family, contemporary college students have high self-orientation and strong desire to become talents, but their social experience is relatively shallow, their psychological development is not mature enough, and they are prone to emotional fluctuations. With the development of economy and society, the social environment, family environment and school environment faced by college students are becoming increasingly complex. Under the background of the implementation of various reform measures involving the vital interests of college students, they are faced with increasing pressure in study, employment, economy and emotion, and inevitably there will be various psychological problems and they need help from others. Therefore, counselors in higher vocational colleges should follow the principles of being close to reality, life and students, and further improve and perfect college students' mental health education.

Second, vocational college counselors to carry out students' mental health education methods

(1) Fully understand students' mental health and make targeted and regular psychological counseling plans.

Counselors in higher vocational colleges can deeply understand each student's study, family, moral character and personality by observing, talking or understanding with other students or teachers, and at the same time conduct scientific psychological tests to provide scientific and reasonable basis for psychological counseling. On the basis of a comprehensive understanding of college students' mental health level, we should establish psychological files for individual problem students, conduct individual counseling and follow-up counseling, formulate effective class psychological counseling plans, find out common problems, formulate group counseling plans and conduct group counseling.

(2) Earnestly study and study relevant theories of psychology to improve the quality of counselors.

Counselors working in the front line should have knowledge of psychology, pedagogy, sociology and philosophy, master the basic methods and skills of psychological counseling, and understand the individual differences of students in personality, interest, ability and values. Different types of students have different characteristics of psychological activities, and their reaction speed, intensity and flexibility to things are also different. Counselors should treat different types of students differently to make ideological education more targeted.

(3) Enhance their own personality charm and improve their influence and affinity for students.

Kong Ziyun: "He is honest and does not give orders; His body is not right, although he does not obey. " In a sense, example is more important than words and deeds. Therefore, counselors should not only explain morality clearly, deeply and thoroughly, but also influence and infect students with their own personality charm, so as to "correct themselves first".

(D) correctly grasp the type of work, so as to be student-oriented.

First of all, we should treat students sincerely, communicate with them sincerely and put ourselves in their shoes. Only in this way can students truly feel understood and accepted, pour out their joys and sorrows to counselors, explain their inner confusion, and better help themselves to know themselves, improve themselves and develop themselves. Secondly, we should respect students and their values, personalities and hobbies. Respect means understanding, acceptance and care, and is synonymous with warmth; Respect is equality and friendship with students.

Third, the conclusion

Counselors in higher vocational colleges working in the front line should fully understand the importance of college students' mental health, pay full attention to their mental health education, make use of various modern teaching methods, and conscientiously do a good job in communication and guidance of college students' psychological problems, so that they can grow up healthily and become useful talents with all-round development.
