We are Globalpsy

We work for and for mental health in a positive perspective.
Building well-being of the hedonic towards the eudaimonic.

Our origins

Globalpsy is a civil organization that was born in 2017 with the aim of promoting an approach to well-being, mental health and psychiatry integrating new approaches and perspectives in a transversal way. Its founder, Hernán Alessandria, a doctor specializing in medical psychology and psychiatry, brought together other experts in wellness, education and health to develop his project.

Globalpsy believes and intends to collaborate in the construction of a new accompaniment model with regard to psycho-emotional well-being. To do this, it promotes and disseminates practices, knowledge and resources from a holistic, non-reductionist perspective, based on empirical evidence.

Mission

Investigate, train and spread the knowledge and tools for the construction of
well-being understood as one of the pillars of the notion of health.

View

Promote and spread the foundations of Positive Psychiatry both in academic and community settings from a non-reductionist holistic perspective aimed at valuing everything that benefits well-being, both for oneself and for the whole of humanity, from the beginning of the common good and solidarity (the so-called eudaimonic well-being, beyond the simply hedonistic).

Goals

● Build networks and add perspectives and points of view on well-being and holistic mental health.
● Explore new fields and horizons in the field of wellness and positive mental health, from a holistic and integrative perspective.
● Spread the tools and techniques for the integral development of people and communities, and their relationship with the natural environment.
● Value knowledge and resources based on scientific research and empirical evidence.
● Encourage alliances with institutions and other organizations to promote new innovative projects, both in the field of research, such as education, training and dissemination.
● Encourage socio-cultural activities on the promotion, prevention and protection of health.
