Against the backdrop of current social transformation and educational reform, college students are facing increasing psychological pressure, making mental health education an important part of higher education 1. With the rapid development of the social economy and the popularization of higher education, the student population in vocational colleges has been expanding, and their mental health issues have gradually become a key topic in the field of education. As the core force in student management, vocational college counselors play an irreplaceable role in promoting students’ all-around development and maintaining campus harmony and stability. However, in the face of the complex and changing psychological states of students and heavy work tasks, the mental health status of counselors themselves also deserves attention. Based on the theory of positive psychology, this study explores how to optimize the content and methods of mental health education work for vocational college counselors, so as to improve their psychological quality and better serve the growth needs of students.
