SUMMARY:Webinar: Psychological Coping: Improving and Maintaining Your Men
 tal Health in Essential Work
DESCRIPTION:-- Webinar Description: --\n\nWorking in high-stress environm
 ents requires more than resilience—it requires practical tools for nav
 igating uncertainty, risk, and emotional impact. This course focuses on 
 concrete strategies to support wellbeing for both frontline workers and 
 those in supervisory or management roles.\n\nParticipants will explore p
 ractical approaches for coping with uncertainty, clarifying what is and 
 is not within their control, distinguishing perceived risk from actual r
 isk, and applying tools such as values-based decision-making and radical
  acceptance where appropriate. The course also addresses strategies for 
 individuals who are already managing anxiety, trauma, or other mental he
 alth challenges, with an emphasis on realistic, compassionate, and susta
 inable practices.\n\nFor managers and supervisors, the course offers gui
 dance on how to better support staff through clear communication, increa
 sing workers’ sense of control, creating space for debriefing and proc
 essing difficult events, and recognizing that people cope and recover in
  different ways.\n\nThis course is designed to strengthen individual and
  team capacity in high-pressure settings by providing practical, adaptab
 le tools that can be applied immediately in day-to-day work.\n\n-- Instr
