Telkom University Strengthens Student Mental Health Support through Comprehensive Counseling Services

Professional Counseling Services for All Students

Telkom University provides free psychological counseling services for all students, supported by licensed psychologists from the IPK West Java. The counseling sessions are conducted both individually and in groups, addressing various topics such as achievement motivation, communication skills, self-esteem, relationship dynamics, and career preparation.

In 2024, six professional psychologists are available to serve Telkom University students, including Shinta Putrinanda, M.Si., Psikolog, and Gentur Anto Judho, S.Psi., Psikolog. These experts hold regular practice schedules every week, with counseling sessions running from 08.00 to 16.00 WIB in the Psychology Service Room, Tokong Nanas Building. Students can make appointments via the Student Counseling Call Center or the Telkom University Counseling Service portal.

Accessible Support through Multiple Channels

To ensure inclusivity, the university offers both offline and online counseling services, allowing students to receive psychological support regardless of their location or schedule. A dedicated call center and peer counseling program have also been established to encourage students to seek help early and comfortably.

Additionally, the university uses an EEG-based mental health screening tool to help assess stress and emotional well-being. This technology-driven approach allows the counseling team to monitor and tailor interventions according to each student’s condition.

Telkom University also integrates mental health awareness into student orientation and organizational training programs, ensuring that new students understand available support systems from the start of their academic journey.

Mental Health Education and Awareness Campaigns

In addition to counseling services, Telkom University actively promotes mental health literacy through seminars, webinars, and poster campaigns. Topics such as self-love, burnout management, emotional regulation, and academic stress management are routinely discussed in collaboration with psychologists and mental health practitioners.

Over the past year, more than 700 students have participated in these awareness activities, either onsite or via online sessions. These initiatives not only equip students with coping strategies but also help destigmatize mental health discussions within the campus community.

These advancements represent a major breakthrough compared to the previous year, reflecting Telkom University’s strengthened commitment to enhancing student well-being and providing more inclusive, responsive, and professional mental health support.
