Abstract
Sementara dunia terus dilanda krisis kesehatan mental global, sistem layanan yang ada saat ini sebagian besar bersifat reaktif, hanya membantu orang setelah mereka mencapai tahap krisis. Makalah konseptual ini mengusulkan Ekosistem Berlapis untuk Pengelolaan Kesehatan Mental Proaktif sebagai solusi yang dapat memperbaiki struktur layanan, membuka jalan untuk fokus pada pencegahan dini dan pemeliharaan kesejahteraan daripada sekadar penyembuhan. Model yang diusulkan di sini terdiri dari empat lapisan yang saling terkait secara fungsional: pertama, pengumpulan data sensorik yang menggunakan sumber pasif dan aktif; kedua, mesin analitik prediktif yang mengeluarkan sinyal peringatan dini; ketiga, pengiriman intervensi mikro; dan terakhir, keterlibatan manusia sebagai pemeriksaan klinis akhir. Selain mengusulkan tipologi intervensi yang mencakup aspek kognitif, perilaku, sosial, dan digital, makalah ini juga mengkritik “Paradoks Privasi-Personalisasi” dengan mengusulkan solusi etis seperti minimalisme data dan kontrol pengguna yang transparan. Dengan menetapkan ukuran kinerja baru seperti tingkat keterlibatan dan penurunan peristiwa eskalasi, struktur ini diharapkan menjadi panduan untuk mengembangkan teknologi kesehatan mental yang tidak hanya cerdas tetapi juga mampu membangun kepercayaan dan otonomi pengguna
