Webinar “Preserving Mental Health During the Crisis Time”

BSSC Webinar was held on 25 July 2020 via ZOOM with “Preserving Mental Health During the Crisis Time” as the theme. The goal of this event is to increase the awareness of the participants on how important mental health is, urge participants to always think positively and understanding the mental health impacts that might occur during the crisis time. To achieve that, we invited Frisca Melissa, M. Psi., Psikolog as the speaker of this webinar. These days, she practices clinical psychologists at Ciputra Medical Center, Smart Mind Center and PT Kasandra Persona Prawacana. During the webinar, she shared lots of knowledge about mental health starting from psychologist aspects, types and solutions on how to overcome mental health that might occur during the crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

“One of the most important things to preserve mental health during the crisis time is by adapting to the situation. We can readjust expectations and life’s goal that is more relevant to the new normal conditions. And then, we can recreate an action plan to keep up with the times” said the speaker.

At the end of the webinar, we also opened a QnA session with the participants to expand their knowledge and answered their curiosity. During this session, participants were very enthusiastic about asking questions regarding mental health during the crisis time. Before we end the webinar, we also took a picture with the participants by opening their camera via ZOOM. And right before leaving the room, lots of participants showed their gratitude for the event in the comment section by saying that this webinar was absolutely helpful.
