In general, people who are not mentally healthy will show 'bad behavior' such as being stubborn, disobeying good teachings, lying, deviating, torturing other people and even doing things that are not in accordance with the prevailing norms in society. Thus, mental development is effectively carried out by paying attention to the psychological factors of the target to be fostered. This research is qualitative with a descriptive approach. There are four key informants, the coaches of the assisted residents, while the supporting informants are the five assisted residents. Data were collected through observation and interviews. While the data analysis technique uses data collection, datareduction, presentation of data, and drawing conclusions and triangulation of data. The results of the study show that in giving mental especially "spiritual guidance" carried out by the supervisor, it has been running properly, but the guidance to the inmates there is only limited to "giving material" about religion, but lacks emphasis on the guidance and goals of the "guidance" itself, and Lack of motivation for the inmates to carry out activities voluntarily even though following them is just a formality so that the coach will not scold.
