    Psychotherapy plays a pivotal role in addressing the multifaceted challenges of mental health by offering diverse approaches to understanding and managing psychological disturbances. This research programme seeks to explore the perspectives, insights, and experiences of first-year psychology students regarding personal therapy. By focusing on this specific group, the study aims to investigate their understanding of psychotherapy and its critical contribution to fostering the psychological well-being of university students. Through qualitative analysis, the research identifies themes related to the importance of personal therapy in supporting the professional development of mental health practitioners in training. The findings not only illuminate the psychotherapeutic culture among university students but also carry significant implications for enhancing supportive frameworks and psychotherapeutic interventions within university settings, thereby improving student welfare and academic performance.

    The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly elevated chronic stress levels, especially among university students. This study examined the effectiveness of binaural beat auditory stimulation in reducing chronic stress, using both the DASS-21 questionnaire and electroencephalography (EEG) as measurement tools. Six students identified with high stress were randomly assigned to one of three four-week interventions: alpha binaural beat music, beta binaural beat music, or non-binaural beat control music. EEG analysis revealed a general increase in power spectrum across all groups, indicating changes in brainwave activity. Notably, a significant increase in sample entropy—a measure of neural complexity—was observed exclusively in the alpha binaural beat group by week four. Correspondingly, this group showed the greatest reduction in self-reported DASS-21 stress scores. These findings suggest that alpha binaural beat stimulation promotes effective neural entrainment and is more successful than beta or non-binaural beat stimuli in alleviating chronic stress among university students. This study highlights the potential of binaural beat auditory stimulation as a non-invasive tool for improving mental health.
