Workplace Mental Health Training & Workshops
Practical learning designed around your people, your workplace and your goals.
Elpizo provides customized workshops, seminars, lunch-and-learns and professional-development sessions for organizations, managers and teams. Our workplace programming combines mental-health knowledge, facilitation experience and practical learning that can be applied in everyday work.
Rather than asking your team to fit a standard workshop, we can tailor the topic, examples, format and level of depth to your organization’s needs.
Why Workplace Mental-Health Learning Matters
The World Health Organization recommends organizational interventions, manager training and worker training as part of evidence-based action on mental health at work. The National Standard of Canada for Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace also provides a voluntary framework for organizations seeking to promote mental health and prevent psychological harm.
Elpizo’s role is to provide practical education and tools. We do not promise that a workshop will produce a specific productivity, financial or retention outcome.

- Current workplace challenges

Training Is Educational - Not Psychotherapy
Workshops and training are educational and professional-development services. Participation does not create an individual psychotherapy relationship, and facilitators do not diagnose or provide personal treatment during a workplace session.
If a participant needs individual mental-health support, Elpizo can provide information about appropriate counselling options or the organization’s EAP, where applicable.
