Implementing Mental Health Training Videos
Mental health training is a common element to everyday practices focused on healing those with a wide range of psychological or mental illness. Implementing mental health training videos into your practice can make a difference between proper training and missed opportunities for your therapists to learn and engage. Here’s what you need to know before implementing mental health training videos into your practice.

Start with a Core, Leadership Focused Corporate Message
Implementing mental health training videos into your practice begins with a core leadership video that is focused on corporate culture and the message that your mental health practice wishes to send to the audience.
Take advantage of this time to deliver upper management support to trainees. A simple message from the head therapist, program director, or the CEO can be highly beneficial to the opening of a training video. This shows that your practice is genuine and supports the entire team.
Create Engaging Scenarios to Reduce Stigma
Reducing stigma in mental health is vital. Up to 80% of people will experience a mental health condition at some time during their lifetime, and yet, discussing mental health continues to be something that we self-stigmatize or avoid.
Mental health training videos must address the stigma and create engaging scenarios that help your team to reduce the stigma to improve understanding of mental health conditions and access to treatment.
Consider scenarios that show how people, of all color and status and age, experience a spectrum of mental well-being that ranges from completely functional and “normal” to completely non-functional.
Each day, and even each hour of the day, we move along this spectrum, throughout the course of our lives, approaching times when we are completely functional and sometimes approaching the completely non-functional end of the spectrum.

Personalize Training
Personalized training will help your trainees to connect with the mental health training videos that you offer and get on board with the information that you are delivering. Consider using personalized scenarios or supporting concepts that your team will understand and connect with.
Companies should implement personalization into their health training to help newly hired individuals and those that are training to better understand the practices and procedures of the program.
