“As a leading global business we are extremely aware of how crucial the mental wellbeing of our employees is but also recognised that this is an area where we require expert guidance and support. It was important for us to partner with a provider who could offer extensive knowledge and experience to support us in developing a long term sustainable strategy and maintaining a healthy workplace culture.

We have been extremely impressed with the professional services provided by Central Minds, they have understood our objectives, created and delivered bespoke training which has brought mental health back to the forefront. The therapists delivered the training sessions in a way that really puts participants at ease, they share their knowledge and experience and our employees particularly found the interactive aspects and breakout groups very useful.

I would not hesitate to recommend Central Minds to any other company who is looking to support and protect their employees’ mental wellbeing and I look forward to working with them further. ”

“Partnering with the most qualified healthcare professionals to provide high-quality information to our clients is key for us, and this led us to choose Central Minds.”

"I recently attended Central Minds' training session on leading with empathy in the workplace by Dr. Sharmeen, and it was a great experience! The session was not only insightful but also incredibly practical. Dr. Sharmeen expertly combined theory with real-world applications, making it easy to understand and implement the strategies discussed. I left feeling empowered and equipped with the tools to foster a more compassionate and productive work environment. I highly recommend Central Minds for anyone looking to enhance their leadership skills for their organizations."

“On April 14th, The Women’s Foundation’s Mentoring Programme 2021-22 cohort had the amazing opportunity to be part of an insightful Mental Health session led by Dr. Sharmeen Shroff and Dr. Zoe Fortune from Central Minds. Our participants learned about some practical tools to support our mental health, especially given these challenging times in Hong Kong. We were reminded of the importance of talking about mental health and ended the session with a much needed breathing exercise. Thank you so much Sharmeen, Zoe and Central Minds for sharing your time and expertise with us.”

“This is to thank your organization, Central Minds, for organizing the “Leading with Empathy” workshop for our senior leadership team members. I particularly appreciate the sincerity and effectiveness of this workshop.

In times like this, it is increasingly important to Lead with Empathy. Your workshop has been an important trigger for each one of us to reconsider our leadership styles. The suggestions by Bhavna Bharvani, the facilitator, provided us with actionable next steps.

We hope to scale this to our next level of managers shortly. Wish you all the best for what you’re doing on this very important topic for the society.”

“To celebrate World Mental Health Day, we organized a seminar on 13 October to raise awareness for mental health conditions and help employees understand what they can do to help themselves and their colleagues to improve their mental health.

We reached out to Central Minds due to their extensive knowledge and experience in mental health. Plus, they had substantial experience working with other corporate clients on delivering customized training catered to their employees’ needs.

Their professionalism and understanding of the topic really impressed us. We greatly appreciated their efficiency and effort and would recommend Central Minds to any other company looking to offer training to employees on how to support and protect their mental wellbeing.”

“This is our second year partnering with Central Minds to organize mental health workshops for our employees at adm. We were once again thoroughly impressed by the teams’ insights, professionalism and sincerity in delivering the workshops, in a way that was engaging and welcoming to all levels within the company. Participants from the workshop walked away armed with knowledge and practical tips on how to better take care of employees’ mental health, and the skills needed to bring conversations about mental health to the forefront.

Thank you once again to the team at Central Minds in supporting our company in maintaining a healthy workplace culture! We are dedicated to continuously integrating mental health best practices into the everyday work life of our adm community. We look forward to future workshops to further develop our awareness on mental health issues across all management levels. ”

“I was amazed and encouraged by the feedback from our people after their joining in the recent process group sessions facilitated by Brian and Sharmeen. They told me that it was very cathartic, reassuring and empowering. It was not something our people could have imagined JLL could have achieved in being so open on mental health and wellbeing.

We are also grateful to hear from our people that the sessions led to them initiating a happy Friday catch up with a group of colleagues and friends who ever worked in the same team years ago. It’s indeed helping even more people as a result.

We truly appreciate the partnership with Brian and Sharmeen to celebrate the fact that the culture we have all contributed to building in our firm enabled us to have such great sessions.”

“As a company that is active in several Asian markets, at Dragonfly Asia-Pacific we were keenly aware of the toll that this pandemic had taken on the mental well-being of our team. As such, we worked with Central Minds to create a short webinar in August 2021 to help raise awareness of the tell-tale signs of emotional stress, how to handle it as leaders and activities that our team could undertake in order to improve their overall emotional well-being. Sharmeen and the team did a great job of putting together a presentation and workshop for the team in a way that could be understood and accepted across different cultures. With emotional and mental well-being becoming a more critical and better-acknowledged health issue across the corporate world, we feel that the work being done by Central Minds to improve awareness of the issue is helpful in not only contributing to the wellbeing of our team members, but is the kind of program that helps in establishing us an employer that truly cares about its people. We recommend to any company looking at doing the same for their team members to consider inviting Central Minds to assist given their extensive knowledge in the subject.”
