TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Presidential Staff Office (KSP) announced that it is currently offering public mental health consultations to help people overcome the uncertain developments amidst the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 

“People who are starting to be struck by anxiety must be guided by experts in the field. We are trying to help people’s situation from turning bad that would overshadow the coronavirus itself,” said KSP Moeldoko in a meeting with the national service system for mental health on Tuesday.

The availability of mental health consultation services is as crucial as physical health services, especially in the midst of daily activities confined in one’s home and added with anxiety-inducing news updates on the coronavirus.

“I want to have a single national service system that is reachable for members of the public who yearn for professional guidance,” said Moeldoko. 

The three main strategic steps that the service offers will comprise of public education, initial consultation, and guidance. Moeldoko also rallied everyone to contribute to the issue in hand and participate in being the solution to community mental health problems.
