Head Strong Workplaces is a boutique consultancy that specialises in assisting organisations to create mentally healthy workplaces. We do this by focussing on building organisational capability: the systems, processes, skills and abilities that an organisation needs, not just to prevent psychological harm, but to create an environment where employees can thrive.
Our services and programs combine psychology, neuroscience and employment law to bring practical and evidence-based strategies that help workplaces:
- Take a strategic approach to workplace mental health and psychosocial risk management;
- Identify and manage risks to psychological health and safety in the workplace;
- Build interpersonal effectiveness and supportive leadership skills;
- Assist leaders, HR and/or WHS teams to understand, respond to, and manage psychosocial risks in the workplace;
- Create engaged and positive teams;
- Reduce stigma and encourage a culture of peer support; and
- Increase resilience.
The Head Strong team use their extensive experience as mental health practitioners and the latest research to deliver programs and services that are practical, relevant and engaging. And we help businesses to implement a workplace mental health strategy that actually makes a difference to mental health and wellbeing at work.
