Penerapan Intervensi Psikososial Dalam Pelayanan Terhadap Anak Korban Kekerasan Seksual di Lembaga Perlindungan Anak Deli Serdang

Abstract

Child sexual abuse is a serious issue with extensive impacts on the physical, psychological, and social well-being of victims. The Deli Serdang Child Protection Institution (LPA) serves as an organization providing recovery and rehabilitation services for child victims of sexual abuse. This study aims to investigate the implementation of psychosocial intervention in services for child sexual abuse victims at LPA Deli Serdang. The research was conducted in Deli Serdang Regency, with Key Informant I being the Chairperson of LPA Deli Serdang and Key Informant II being the LPA Deli Serdang Psychologist. Main Informants I and II are child sexual abuse victims, referred to by the initials Z and N. Supporting informants include the adoptive mother of victim Z (Supporting Informant I), the biological mother of victim N (Supporting Informant II), the LPA Secretary (Supporting Informant III), and the LPA Legal Staff (Supporting Informant IV). Data were collected through literature review and field studies, including observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The data were then analyzed qualitatively to gain a comprehensive understanding of the psychosocial intervention process implemented. The results indicate that the Deli Serdang Child Protection Institution, as a non-governmental organization, has fulfilled the mandate of Law No. 35 of 2014 on Child Protection. The implementation of psychosocial interventions at LPA Deli Serdang, analyzed according to Nitimiharjo’s theory (2012), has proven effective in bringing about positive changes in the cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and environmental aspects of victims. Based on Caroline’s theory (2012), individual therapy and play therapy have been identified as the main interventions used in handling child sexual abuse cases.
