3.3.5 Mental health support for students

Enhancing Digital Access to Mental Health Support for Students

In recognition of the fundamental need for readily accessible mental health support, the UTM Psychological & Counseling Services Center fully implemented an online session application system, known as the PsyCare System. This system is accessible to all students directly through the MyUTM Portal, embedding mental health support within the central digital infrastructure of campus life.

This strategic move directly addresses barriers to access, such as stigma and logistical inconvenience, by enabling students to discreetly and efficiently schedule counseling sessions at their convenience.

The implementation of the PsyCare System represents a concrete and scalable institutional investment in mental health support for students, aligning with best practices for modern university welfare provision. By prioritizing convenience and ease of application, UTM ensures that crucial counseling services are delivered efficiently, thereby improving the overall effectiveness of the support.
