Rianty Mellantika Ahmad

I am a highly skilled counselor and responder with over 15 years of experience in psychosocial facilitation, mental health support, and crisis intervention. My expertise lies in providing compassionate, evidence-based support to individuals in high-risk and crisis situations, particularly those affected by self-harm, suicidal ideation, and bereavement through suicide. I am adept at de-escalation, risk assessment, and maintaining composure under high-stress circumstances, which has been crucial in my role as a crisis helpline volunteer and consultant.

Throughout my career, I have worked with various NGOs and humanitarian organizations, delivering one-on-one counseling and psychosocial support to vulnerable groups, including women and children affected by trauma and violence. My commitment to mental health advocacy drives me to develop personalized crisis management plans and conduct training sessions on suicide prevention and crisis intervention. I am passionate about delivering proactive, stigma-free care and collaborating with multi-sectoral stakeholders to ensure comprehensive support systems for those in need.
