Contemporary constructivism combines the strengths of classical cognitive schools with contemporary characteristics. The cognitive counseling theory embodying the constructivist spirit, by adhering to the principle of "rational construction for resolving confusion, adjustment, and promoting development," features operational processes and methods similar to students' knowledge learning processes, methods, and goals, making it suitable for school mental health education. The research team flexibly applied cognitive constructivist principles to mental health education in secondary vocational schools, establishing a set of strategies and methods that are relatively appropriate; and developing a set of educational content that is relatively applicable and available for reference and adoption. These methods and content are, in principle, also applicable to mental health education work in universities.
