"What are the challenges of the training process, in higher education, when we consider mental health?". Based on this questioning, Professor Mônica expanded the discussion regarding the understanding of mental health, which is also established in the relational field, whose ways of living reflect the condition of the current civilization model.

The professor, researcher and psychoanalyst, drew attention to the fact that individuals from Western societies are living an itinerary based on medicalization, in order to respond to the aspirations of the neoliberal system.
