The answer might be more than you think. Recent UK research reveals:

• 1 in 6 working-age adults experience symptoms of mental ill health at any given time
• 72 million working days are lost annually due to mental health issues
• Mental ill health costs UK employers £45 billion per year; a 16% rise since 2017, averaging £1,700 per employee
• 70–75% of people with diagnosable mental illness receive no treatment at all

In a post-Covid world, these figures continue to climb. Forward-thinking employers now recognise that mental health isn’t a soft issue, it’s a strategic priority.

Conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, and PTSD are diagnosable, treatable, and deeply impactful. Left unaddressed, they erode engagement, productivity, and recovery; driving up costs through absenteeism and presenteeism.

The solution? Early intervention, expert care, and a culture that takes mental health seriously.

A Timely Opportunity for Employers

Employees spend nearly half their waking hours at work. That gives employers a unique opportunity; and arguably a duty of care, to foster environments where mental health is taken seriously. You can’t carry the weight of someone’s wellbeing, but you can create the conditions that empower them to seek help, access care, and recover; so mental illness is no longer a barrier to their success.

The business case is clear. Deloitte research shows that the return on investment in mental health has risen by 20%, with employers now seeing an average of £5 back for every £1 spent.

Mental illness may feel like a sensitive topic. But the real risk is ignoring it. In today’s climate of greater openness and understanding, talented people are actively seeking out employers who prioritise mental health and wellbeing.

If you act now, the rewards; for your people and your business, are more than worth it.

Why work with Us

In a crowded field of corporate mental health providers, we offer something fundamentally different. While psychologists, coaches, and counsellors play vital roles, they cannot assess, diagnose, or prescribe treatment for mental illness. We can.

As a Consultant Psychiatrist, Dr Michael Obidoa is a medically qualified doctor with the authority to prescribe both medication and evidence-based therapies addressing the root causes of mental ill health that limit performance at work. He’s also a seasoned leader, strategist, and executive coach who understands how to embed mental wellness at an organisational level.

What this means for your business:

• Save time: Rapid access to diagnosis and treatment; no waiting months for assessments. Early intervention shortens recovery from years to months, or months to weeks.
• Reduce costs: A healthier, more productive workforce. Medical referral and preventative screening deliver the highest ROI; up to £10 saved for every £1 spent, outperforming self-help interventions.
• Streamline solutions: One trusted provider for treatment, strategy, and training; plus access to a network of specialists and lived-experience advocates.
• Embed change: We treat causes, not just symptoms. Our approach bridges clinical psychiatry with corporate strategy to build lasting cultures of mental wellness.

We don’t just support your people; we strengthen your organisation.
