Muhammadiyah University Offers Mental Health Support Services for Students

MUHAMMADIYAH.OR.ID, YOGYAKARTA – Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY) provides a comprehensive support system to address the psychological well-being of its students. 

According to the Indonesian Private University Association Association (APTISI), approximately 5% of university students in Yogyakarta struggle with depression and psychological disorders. In response to the rising concerns about mental health among university students, Rector of UMY Gunawan Budiyanto emphasized the university’s commitment to a “zero tolerance” policy against bullying and violence. 

“Mental health is a crucial aspect of our students’ lives. The university and parents should work together to protect and monitor students, as mental health disorders can have severe consequences,” said Gunawan at the parent-university conference on Saturday, September 21. 

To address this pressing concern, UMY has established an integrated mental health care system. This includes expanding its team of mental health professionals comprising ten psychologists and psychiatrists. The university believes in early intervention and prevention, focusing on supporting students from their first year of university life.

Meanwhile, Vice Rector for Student Affairs, Alumni, and Islamic Affairs of UMY Faris Al-Fadhat mentioned that the university also offers the peer counselor program. This initiative allows students to talk with their peers before being referred to professional psychologists if necessary. 

“It is a valuable resource for addressing minor mental health issues, while more complex cases will receive professional attention,” said Faris. 

The mental health services are free of charge. Besides, UMY has established a hotline for those experiencing bullying or psychological problems. The university encourages students to actively participate in campus activities, such as student organizations and extracurriculars, as a way to promote mental well-being and prevent bullying.
