The events of the past year have sparked a great mental health awakening. Prioritizing mental health in the workplace has been long overdue. Now, employers are looking for guidance on creating mentally healthy workplaces.

Our vice president of clinical services, Meghan Stokes, LCSW-C, joined the Friends with Employee Benefits podcast and talked about how employers should use this opportunity to transform their cultures into one that prioritizes mental health.

During the conversation, Meghan discusses the best place to start for supporting mental health in the workplace, the significance of providing leaders with the skills to role model mental health, the importance of open communication for returning to the office, and how to leverage your EAP.
