Workplace Mental Health Training for Managers

Every employer has a legal responsibility to understand and support the range of mental health needs, yet many managers don’t know where to start. Our Mental Health Training for Managers provides a no-nonsense, practical overview of how mental health works, how to spot the signs and how to support employees. It is written and presented by an experienced clinical psychologist with over 10 years’ experience.
