Abstrakt: A recent study conducted by Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia explores the impact of traditional gender roles on college students' mental health. The research highlights the lack of gender-sensitive counseling services and studies in universities, which reinforces these traditional gender roles. The study used qualitative research methods, including semi-structured interviews, to gain a deeper understanding of students' perspectives. The findings reveal that traditional gender roles, masculinity discourse in counseling services, and gender bias in counselors can hinder access to gender-sensitive mental health services. The research emphasizes the need for more inclusive and gender-sensitive counseling services in higher education. [Extracted from the article]
