Mental Wellness Works 2023

“This session gave practical, concrete advice on how to be intentional in creating a safe, mentally well workplace for employees. I really appreciated the simple advice on what I can do to make my employees feel safer, and hopefully less stressed, in the workplace.”
-Mental Wellness Works 2023 Attendee

On September 26th 2023, Mental Health America of Northeast Indiana once again hosted Dr. Sherene McHenry at Mental Wellness Works. Roughly 75 people representing 22 companies joined us at the Parkview Mirro Center for Research and Innovation. Dr. McHenry focused on how leaders and managers can better support the mental health of their employees by delving into the five personality types of workers. She then walked attendees through observable changes they may notice in the work environment as teams change, and offered practical tips and phrases to use to address problems. Our workplaces have a significant impact on our mental health, and often times we spend more time with our coworkers than our families. That makes it even more important for employers to acknowledge the mental health of their employees.
