Thanh Agullo - Speaker on sante mentale

Women represent 70% of depressive patients. Men die by suicide three times more often. These figures are not a matter of chance — they tell something profound about how our societies allow or forbid emotional expression according to gender. This conference is drawn from my doctoral thesis and my latest book — Why Women Cry and Men Have a Drink, published in June 2026 — and twenty years of psychiatric consultation. It explores, with humor and clinical rigor, the biological, psychological, and social mechanisms that explain these differences. What you will learn: why women are overrepresented in depression and what that says about our healthcare system. How men express their suffering differently — and why we don't see it. What companies can concretely do to adapt their mental health policies according to profiles. A conference that makes you laugh, makes you think, and provides tools — for HR managers, managers, and anyone who wants to understand what is really happening behind the facades.

Working parents are exhausted — not just by their jobs, but by the invisible mental load that raising a child or teenager represents today. Ubiquitous screens, rising school anxiety, deteriorating communication, teenagers shutting down. And at the office, these parents are physically present but mentally absent. As a child psychiatrist with 20 years of experience consulting with children, teenagers, and their families, I provide a clinical and practical response to these questions that HR managers hear but don’t know how to address. What you will learn: why excessive screen use is often a symptom, not a cause — and how to discuss it without conflict at home. How to maintain a trusting relationship with a teenager who is shutting down. What warning signs to watch for and when to seek help. How companies can support their parent-employees without interference. A talk that speaks to all the parents in the room — with the rigor of a doctor, the warmth of a mother of three, and concrete tools to apply starting tonight.

What allows us to rise after an ordeal — a loss, burnout, or identity collapse? This conference draws on 20 years of psychiatric practice and a unique personal story: that of a doctor born in Saigon, torn from her country at the age of 3, and returned 47 years later. From this experience of rupture and reconstruction emerged a clinical conviction: resilience is not decreed, it is built — through meaning, connection, and the courage to face what has happened. Through concrete clinical cases, recent neuroscientific data, and immediately applicable tools, this conference explores the mechanisms of psychological rebound. Why do some people rise while others collapse? What role do attachment, identity, and self-narration play in reconstruction? How can companies support their employees during difficult times? A conference that combines clinical rigor, authentic emotion, and pragmatism — for HR audiences, managers, and anyone who has gone through an ordeal.
