A room network for mental health
How can local mental health care be better housed? LocaPsy is our way of asking the question: by starting with the walls.
A practitioner looking for somewhere to practise runs into questions that have nothing to do with their profession: a long lease, a heavy deposit, a keyring to manage, isolation. LocaPsy takes those questions on so that the practitioner has only their consultations to think about.
Flexible renting — from half a day a week to a private room by the month — as a service agreement rather than a sublease. Access is handled from a phone. Locations open close to existing places of care, so that patients need not cross a whole county.
Bringing psychologists and psychiatrists into one centre is not a property convenience: it is what lets a patient be referred without being lost on the way, and a case be discussed between two appointments.
Montesson is a pilot. If the model holds — if it answers a real need for practitioners and patients — it will be repeated elsewhere. We would rather open one place that works than ten that promise.
The furniture, colours and atmosphere in these views are those chosen for the LocaPsy rooms: they illustrate the project's specifications rather than some decor picked at random. They are not contractual at this stage — as the Montesson premises are still being selected, the final volume and layout may differ.
