🧠💚 Mental Health Month may be over, but our commitment continues. At Carrie's Place, we were proud to mark Mental Health Month by coordinating a full day of psychological safety training for our team with @mh_psychology_and_consulting. While the official month has ended, our focus on mental health and wellbeing is ongoing. From flexible work arrangements and access to mental health resources, to open conversations and supportive leadership—we’re building a culture where our people feel safe, valued, and empowered to thrive. Because mental health isn’t a one-off initiative—it’s a daily commitment. 🌱 #carriesplace #asafeplaceforall #mentalhealth #psychologicalsafety #michelleheaton (fb)
