Pick My Brain with Alan Jones 
About Clément Baissat
Clément Baissat is the founder of HopeStage, a French-language support network for people living with bipolar disorder. HopeStage offers free podcasts, articles, online training and peer-support groups, alongside paid one-to-one support from psychiatrists, psychologists and peer helpers. It works with a French non-profit association, Les Étapes de l'Espoir, and says it has helped more than 100,000 people.
Working from Sydney when he spoke to Day One, he was setting up an English-language arm of the service in Australia as a private company, and hosts HopeStage's English podcast, Bipolar Talk.
On Pick My Brain with Alan Jones, he discussed how a mental health service can show its impact before it has medical study data of its own, and how its free and paid programs fit together.
