Objective:
In the wider context of palliative care, problems faced by young people today, such as depression, mental illness, and suicide; are considered terminal problems, so they must be treated immediately and given appropriate intervention. Caution is needed in providing appropriate interventions for them, of course, interventions that are by their characteristics. Based on their character, they are a generation that is quite fragile and easily discouraged; on the other hand, they are a generation that is dynamic and passionate about creativity. There needs to be a match between what they need and what the intervention provides. One type of intervention in palliative care that has recently been offered is "rapid tele-psychotherapy" with single-session music therapy (RTP-SSMT), which is considered quite appropriate in responding to these challenges.
Method:
I report the case of a 22-year-old broken-hearted girl with hopelessness, depression, and suicidal ideation.
Results:
I describe the effectiveness of the implementation of RTP-SSMT in reducing the scales of hopelessness, depression, and suicidal ideation.
Significance Of Results:
It can be concluded that the implementation of the RTP-SSMT for a broken-hearted girl with conditions of hopelessness, depression, and suicidal ideation who can be at risk for suicide can be said to be effective in alleviating these negative feelings. Aside from that, through this study, the biggest implication is that the RTP-SSMT intervention theory can be a choice for mental health workers who want to process assistance to patients/clients who experience hopelessness, depression, and suicidal ideation in someone who has experienced a breakup.
