國際課程合作週：樹仁大學教師一及學生到蘭州大學參與跨境學術交流活動
2026年5月9日及10日兩天，香港樹仁大學與蘭州大學聯合舉辦的課程合作週專題學術交流活動圓滿舉行。來自香港樹仁大學的林嫣紅博士及唐家豪博士，圍繞接納與承諾療法（ACT）以及運動經顱直流電刺激（tDCS）對學習有需要的孩童介入，展開深入的專題分享。
此外，6月13日至14日，香港樹仁大學王一州博士亦踏入這所百年學府的校園，為學生與教師們主講「箱庭療法」專題培訓。樹仁輔心系碩士生Lynn劉姣峰同學也一同參與了其中的萬人計劃，獲益不少。
四天的培訓，不只是知識的輸入，更是一次次心跳的共振——那些關於接納、關於運動、關於箱庭的理論，落在老師們每天面對的孩子們身上，就有了更具體的溫度與形狀。
關注DSE生離校支援 輔導專業望「敲開」體制大門
據了解，英國「低密度心理治療」以「心理健康主任」為主，並由輔導或臨床心理學家、資深心理輔導員進行培訓及督導。亞洲專業輔導及心理協會主席、香港樹仁大學輔導暨研究中心輔導心理學家余鎮洋坦言，外國體制是已用盡既有的心理及輔導人力資源，仍然缺乏精神支援人員，才衍生短時間完成培訓、投入社區服務的「心理健康主任」，惟香港卻未有善用現有人力，「現況不太平衡。」
香港樹仁大學輔導及心理學系副系主任及副教授林嫣紅博士指出，業界以服務大眾為本，不抗拒坊間提供不同心理治療課程，但相關從業員的培訓及實習時數和訓練深度遠低於大學學士程度或以上的輔導專業人員，只能勝任第一層支援工作。她認同說，輔導專業一直希望有更多渠道進入精神健康體制，現時停滯不前，盼藉着分層護理模式打開一扇窗。
