Abstract

This study developed a mobile-based mental health consultation application at Universitas Teknologi Yogyakarta (UTY) to offer both online and offline counseling services for students. The tool incorporates two primary features online consultations and offline consultation scheduling, designed to improve students' access to mental health support. The system utilizes Flutter for cross-platform mobile application development, Firebase for data management, and Node.js for backend services. The study employs a Research and Development (R&D) methodology encompassing needs analysis, system design, implementation, and testing. The results indicate that the application successfully mitigates obstacles such time limitations, stigma, and restricted accessibility, hence enhancing student involvement with mental health services. The Self-Reporting Questionnaire 20 (SRQ-20) serves as a mental health screening instrument within the application, enabling students to evaluate their mental health status. This program aims to deliver a thorough and accessible solution for mental health counseling at UTY and may serve as a prototype for other universities.
