What sets us apart
Three positions, and each can be checked
-
We do not ask for your name
Reading, listening, taking stock: all of it works without an account and without an identity. Exactly one place on the platform asks for an account, and it is named on the offers page.
-
Your answers never leave your phone
What you write during "Take stock" stays on your device. This is not a moral undertaking, it is a technical impossibility — and you can see it by watching what the page sends, which is nothing.
-
We start from your reality
Family pressure, the mental load carried by women, the isolation of living abroad, exhaustion among business owners, the silence around low mood. Content, examples and the directory are rooted in the places we serve, not translated from elsewhere.

Under blossoming branches
The name
WEERU_PSY, from the Wolof weer — to heal, to be in good health
The name joins that word to psychology, and it is always written with the underscore. This is not an affectation: the platform speaks first to communities whose language is almost never the one used by sites that talk about mental health.
What is not expressed leaves its mark.
- Institutional line
- A mind at peace, a future within reach.

How we work
Remote and in person, on an announced rhythm
The approach is hybrid. The platform carries what can happen from anywhere; face-to-face meetings take place in Senegal and in several diaspora cities, Paris first among them.
-
Webinars, every month
One theme a month, one hour, online, free. The recording is kept, for those whose time zone or working hours make live attendance impossible.
-
Workshops, every quarter
In person, in small groups, in Dakar and in Paris, led by a specialist in the field concerned.
-
The Tête-à-Tête podcast
Conversations about what is rarely said aloud. Every episode carries its full transcript: you can read it when you cannot listen, or when you cannot hear.
-
Landmark events
World Mental Health Day, community gatherings, sessions run with our partners. Occasional, and announced in the calendar.
