Destigmatising mental health: a challenge and a mission

For Pierre, the scientific popularisation of psychology goes beyond information: it is a way of fighting the stigma associated with mental disorders. In this interview, he shares his vision of mental health and his commitment to a kinder, more open approach. Through PsykoCouac, Pierre seeks to remove barriers and demystify subjects often perceived as complex, or even worrying.

He insists on the importance of talking about disorders in a relaxed yet serious way, so that everyone can recognise themselves and accept the challenges they might be facing. Psychology then becomes a tool for personal empowerment, rather than an abstract discipline.
