Supporting your mental health in the workplace.
We are dedicated to helping individuals with mental health conditions find and maintain fulfilling employment. Understanding the impact mental health can have on work life, we provide the support needed for success.
Navigating mental health challenges at work can be daunting. Struggles with self-confidence, societal stigma, and high-pressure environments can exacerbate symptoms and make daily tasks more difficult. Heavy workloads can further complicate managing mental health alongside professional responsibilities.
Despite these challenges, employment offers significant mental health benefits. Meaningful work provides a sense of purpose and accomplishment, fosters community and connection, and earning an income supports financial stability and boosts self-esteem and independence.
We work collaboratively with you, your family, healthcare providers, and support networks to ensure a comprehensive support system. Join us to navigate your path to a rewarding and supportive employment experience, making your career aspirations a reality.
What’s the process?
1. Make an appointment online or by phone
2. Meet your dedicated consultant
3. Prepare for and find
a job
4. Ongoing support once in a job
