Abstract
Mental health problems are prevalent among students in American universities and colleges, particularly among those from other countries or regions. Despite considerable research on the relatively high prevalence of mental health problems among international college students and potential reasons they under-utilize student support services, little is known about the mental health experiences of students from China to study in the United States. This paper provides insight into the challenges and interventions surrounding the mental health problems of college students from China to study in the United States. This paper provides a synthesis of available findings and addresses the factors triggering mental health issues experienced by Chinese international college students studying in the United States, the challenges they face when gaining access to mental health services, and potential interventions to boost their mental well-being. Additionally, this paper emphasizes the significance of providing a supportive environment that encourages and facilitates the help-seeking behavior of Chinese international college students, aiming to offer a valuable resource for mental health practitioners, policymakers, and higher education professionals.
