There's an elephant in the room!

Mental health issues occur quite often in the general population. Depending on the source around 1 in 5 people will have to deal with a mental health issue sometime in their life. So, it is very likely that any one of us will come across this sooner or later, either in someone we know or in ourselves. And it is a given that a number of people in the workplace will be dealing with mental health issues.

Therefore, it is helpful to gain an understanding about mental health issues, be able to better recognise when someone is suffering from a mental health issue, and know how to respond and support the person in getting qualified help. Knowing what to do in theory, and doing it in the heat of the moment, are two quite different things. Therefore, it is extremely useful to participate in an experiential learning course, where participants get the opportunity to practice communication around addressing elephants in the room, before they might have to do so in real-life.

I would like to shout out to the wonderful people at Serious Woo - many of whom I know and can personally recommend - for offering this course in the workplace and corporate space. The course is run by Serious Woo involving professional role-play actors and knowledgeable, highly experienced psychotherapists and facilitators for an engaging experience.
