ARIHM

What ARIHM does

ARIHM (Action et Recherche – Insertion Handicaps psychiques ou Mentaux), operating under the trade name ARIHM Conseil, is a French non-profit association (Association Loi 1901) founded in 1991 by psychiatrist Dr Gisèle Birck and headquartered at 39 Rue Balard, 75015 Paris. The organization specializes in workplace mental health, professional integration and retention of people with psychological, cognitive or neurodevelopmental disabilities (including autism spectrum, ADHD and DYS conditions), and psychosocial risk prevention (burnout, anxiety, depression, harassment). Its core offerings are Services Appuis Spécifiques (SAS), funded by AGEFIPH (private sector) and FIPHFP (public sector) and deployed in Île-de-France through the ACE (Appui Conseil Emploi) solidarity grouping that ARIHM leads as mandataire; enterprise coaching and consulting engagements (Accompagnement et Coaching en Entreprise); and customized training and sensitization programs delivered under Qualiopi certification. Methodologies are proprietary and human-delivered, including the Entretien Médico-Psycho-Professionnel® intake interview, the Bilan Professionnel Comportemental et Cognitif (BPCC) assessment, and workplace tutoring/coaching based on work psychodynamics expertise.

The organization is also an Intervenant en Prévention des Risques Professionnels (IPRP), with habilitation renewed for five years, enabling delivery of secondary and tertiary psychosocial risk prevention. A multidisciplinary team of approximately 20 staff, including psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, work psychologists, ergonomists and HR consultants, serves individual beneficiaries and enterprise clients. Customer base spans hundreds of organizations across more than 20 sectors, including BNP Paribas, SFR, Crédit Agricole, LCL, Orange, Hermès, Cartier, AP-HP and the Ministère de la Culture, with corporate partners also providing annual memberships and tax-deductible donations.

Revenue is generated through three primary streams: (1) multi-year public funding contracts via the ACE grouping for SAS services, (2) direct enterprise consulting and coaching contracts with private and public employers, and (3) recurring corporate memberships, donations and Qualiopi-funded training fees. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales complemented by institutional referrals from CAP EMPLOI, Pôle Emploi, MDPH, occupational health services and HR disability missions, with brand-building via petits déjeuners débats, webinars and earned media (Le Monde, Les Echos, BFM Business, Santé Mentale). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and services are negotiated individually, with AGEFIPH/FIPHFP-funded services delivered at no direct cost to beneficiaries.

Direct peers

• Eléas Conseil: French firm specializing in psychosocial risk prevention, workplace mental health, and occupational QVCT consulting. Overlaps directly with ARIHM's clinical/ergonomic approach to complex cases and employer training, serving the same French HR buyer.
• Fondation Falret: French mental health foundation that co-deploys Services Appuis Spécifiques with ARIHM inside the ACE solidarity grouping in Île-de-France. Directly comparable as a peer provider of disability employment support for people with psychological disabilities.
• Aptéis: French occupational health and QVT/QVCT consultancy supporting employers on psychosocial risk prevention and workplace well-being. Comparable offering to ARIHM's IPRP-certified interventions and corporate training for HR and occupational health buyers.
• Entr'Aide Vivre: French association and ACE solidarity grouping partner that co-delivers AGEFIPH/FIPHFP-funded Services Appuis Spécifiques alongside ARIHM in Île-de-France. Directly comparable in scope, funding model, and target beneficiaries.
• Stimulus: French consulting firm specializing in psychosocial risk prevention (RPS) and quality of working life for employers. Directly comparable to ARIHM's IPRP-certified RPS consulting and manager training practice, serving similar HR and occupational health buyers in France.

Broad incumbents

• ANACT: Agence Nationale pour l'Amélioration des Conditions de Travail, a French public agency supporting employers on working conditions, RPS, and QVCT. Operates broadly across the same employer-facing advisory space as ARIHM but at national policy and tooling level rather than clinical delivery.
• Spring Health: Global workplace mental health platform offering EAP, therapy, and coaching to employer clients across geographies. Comparable as a workplace mental health provider competing for the same employer budget category, though operating at significantly larger scale and digital-first.
• Modern Health: Global digital mental health platform serving employers with therapy, coaching, and EAP-like services. Competes with ARIHM for employer mental health spend, but with tech-enabled delivery rather than clinician-led clinical specialty.

Regional players

• CIAMT: Paris/Île-de-France inter-company occupational health service supporting employer health surveillance and prevention. ARIHM lists CIAMT as a corporate partner; comparable regional footprint and employer base, though CIAMT focuses on medical surveillance rather than psychosocial reintegration coaching.
