Some organisations offer counselling for employees. It'll usually be through a scheme known as an employee assistance programme (EAP).
If you're a member of a trade union, you can also get help and information on mental health from them.
A Wellness Action Plan from Mind can help employers and employees put steps in place to support mental health at work.
