Every tutor's guide to promoting mental health, well-being and resilience in Higher Education

Are you an academic or professional member of staff in a Higher Education institution? Have you been wondering what is going on with young people, their mental health and well-being, and why they are reporting increasing levels of stress and anxiety? Do you want to support your students to thrive both academically and personally, but feel you don't have the right skills and you're terrified of saying the wrong thing? This book is for you. As a tutor you can help students to flourish not only academically but in all aspects of their university lives: mentally, emotionally, physically, socially and spiritually. Fabienne Vailes reveals how to meet this challenge by understanding mental health and mental disorders and learning from students who have overcome challenges to thrive at university, so that you can help your students develop a 'tool box' of techniques to support good mental health that will support them through university and beyond.
