Abstract

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that affects thinking, emotional regulation, behavior, and social interaction, often resulting in impaired social functioning. Beyond medical treatment, social rehabilitation is needed to support adaptive abilities and participation in social environments. Music therapy provides a potentially accessible intervention because musical activities can facilitate emotional expression, participation, communication, and interpersonal interaction. This study aimed to describe the implementation of music therapy and its benefits in the social rehabilitation of people with schizophrenia at the Unit Informasi Layanan Sosial (UILS) Rumah Kita Tebet. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with seven informants selected purposively, comprising a UILS manager, social worker, music therapy instructor, companion, and three beneficiaries. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation, then analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings show that music therapy is implemented through assessment, treatment planning, intervention, and evaluation and termination. Activities include breathing exercises, individual and group singing, simple musical instruments, and collective music sessions. The intervention supports emotional stability, participation, self-confidence, social interaction, cooperation, and gradual adaptation to the rehabilitation environment. Music therapy therefore functions not merely as a recreational activity but as a complementary social rehabilitation intervention that supports the development of social functioning among people with schizophrenia.
