Features: With the development of industrialization in society, social competition has become fierce, and the pace of life is tense. People's psychology struggles to adapt, leading to imbalances and a significant increase in mental illnesses. This is a path almost all industrialized countries have experienced and has directly contributed to the flourishing of the counseling and psychotherapy industry in developed industrial nations. Today, the psychological pressure people face is unprecedented in the 50 years since the founding of the country. It arises from the social transformation period, where profound changes occur in the economy, culture, values, and even lifestyles. People lack sufficient mental preparation and resilience to cope with these changes. Everyone also recognizes that this transformation is necessary—without it, society cannot continue to develop, and the ideal of people living a happy life would be difficult to achieve. However, the transformation's impact on people is nearly all-encompassing, affecting work, life, and every aspect of existence. Its depth and breadth are beyond people's expectations and resistance.
