Dr. Elena Martinez, 2025

They call you "manager" but expect you to be a therapist. 77% of managers report their role has become impossibly difficult. You're expected to handle employee panic attacks, depression disclosures, and mental health crises—yet you received zero training for any of it. Every conversation feels like walking a tightrope between being supportive and overstepping boundaries you don't even understand. What happens when well-meaning managers try to help: Legal liability from improper accommodation handling Burnout from absorbing others' emotional crises Team resentment when mental health support seems "unfair" Career damage from mishandling sensitive situations Personal mental health deterioration from constant stress This book transforms overwhelmed managers into confident leaders who can support employee mental health appropriately while protecting themselves and their teams. You'll master: ? Legal boundaries – What you can/cannot do (ADA, FMLA, privacy laws) ? Crisis conversations – Exact scripts for disclosure, accommodation, and emergency situations ? Early warning signs – Recognize problems before they become crises ? Resource navigation – Build networks that actually help employees ? Self-protection – Prevent compassion fatigue and secondary trauma ? Team dynamics – Support individuals without destroying team morale "Finally, a book that doesn't tell managers to 'be more empathetic' without teaching them how to do it safely and effectively. This is the practical guidance we desperately needed." — Sarah Chen, Director of Operations, Fortune 500 Dr. Elena Martinez combines 15 years of corporate psychology expertise with interviews from hundreds of managers to provide the first comprehensive guide for leaders caught between employee needs and their own survival. Stop being an accidental therapist. Start being an intentional leader.
