Two of the nine domains of GNH are health (physical and mental) and psychological well-being. Psychological well-being includes quality of life, life satisfaction, and spirituality. To address these domains and to meet the growing demand, Bhutan invited United States counselors to assist in responding to the increasing mental health problems, social and family issues, and school and career guidance needs. Leila Roach completed her second appointment in\u202fBhutan while working on her 2018 Summer Grant\u202fwith the National Board of Certified Counselors International (NBCC-I) and the Bhutan Ministry of Health\u202fat the Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital (JDWNRH) in the capital city of Thimphu. In this presentation, she will talk about\u202fher\u202fexperiences as a mental health provider, trainer, and supervisor including: the current structure of healthcare in Bhutan; the range of identified mental health and family\/social concerns; cross-cultural counseling issues including the intersection of mental health, culture and religion; and areas\u202ffor future research.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-9701 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.stetson.edu\/brown-center\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/new-leila-roach.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"267\" \/><\/em><i>Leila Roach\u00a0<\/i>earned her Ph.D. in counselor education from the University of Central Florida.
