"It has been a long time since I arranged a course that has got overwhelming feedback from the management team. Sara's training was engaging, fun, it made us reflect on our management of individuals with mental health issues and also reflect on the fact that we need to take care of ourselves, too!"

Understanding of why and how these conditions develop

The soft skills to build rapport and create trust
Tools to have positive, solution-focused conversations

Understanding of the Equality Act 2010 and discrimination on the grounds of mental ill-health
Practical ways to start the conversation about mental health, creating a culture of wellbeing and lifting the stigma about mental health in the workplace

Highly Interactive & Practical

During our online mental health training for managers, we take your managers on a journey from understanding mental health to building critical skills to ensure their own and their team’s wellbeing.

Module 1 – Understanding Mental Health

Module 2 – Tackling Mental Health with Confidence

Module two is a practical interactive session which focuses on giving your managers key skills such as unconscious rapport building, active listening and solution-focused coaching to enable them to have positive and effective conversations with their team about mental health.

Module three brings together all the learning from the first two modules into real-life case studies and reflective practice to embed the rich learnings and fully integrate knowledge.

Highly interactive and practical, we guarantee to give your managers the confidence they need to effectively manage mental health and create a culture of wellbeing.

What our Clients Say

"Extremely valuable and insightful. Sara’s knowledge and skills and experience are tremendous."

"I found the training excellent and very pertinent to my role as a manager and also in my personal life. Sara’s knowledge and expertise are excellent and her delivery style is very warm, reassuring and encouraging."

“Greater understanding and awareness of recognising the signs of stress, anxiety and depression. Tangible actions and questions to use in line management conversations.”

“A really good, broad teaching overview which helped me as both a person, employee and a manager.”

"This course gives us the tools to have confident conversations around mental health and well-being. I would like to say Thank You to Sara for her passion, expertise and sense of humour delivering these sessions to us."

"We recently had a 3-series virtual Management Mental Health Training with our Principals. This was a great option because all of our Principals are in different locations across the US. Everyone found it to be highly informative and interactive. It was easy to ask questions and have a dialogue about the topics. We don’t think there would have been any difference had the training been onsite with all of us in the same room. The conversations we had with each other were very fluent and helped in gaining a good grasp on the material being discussed. We will keep this format for any other training we may have. Also helpful is the ability to record the webinars and refer back to the well-being portal to review for a period of time if needed. This training was very impactful for our Principal group, and the tools and techniques learned are being utilized during this current climate we find ourselves in. Highly recommend, and loved the fact that we were able to do this virtually.”

Many thanks to yourself and Avril for a fantastic course. On the whole the group felt it was a good blend of theory and practical exercises. Already this week I have used the breathing techniques with a young boy who was finding it difficult to keep himself calm.
