Supporting our Mental Health

Sometimes it helps to talk.

We all have good days and bad days. Then there are those days when something isn't quite right, you've got something on your mind, or things just seem too much. Whatever it may be, it can make a real difference having someone to talk to. To hear what you have to say. And to give you advice.

Catalpa has a relationship with Mandala Staff Support who provide all Catalpa employees with confidential and free counselling services.

The aim of this service is to assist our people with the resolution of personal and work related problems which may affect your work performance or quality of life. Any discussions you may have with a counselor will remain strictly confidential.
