ERIN CALLINAN, MSW
FOUNDER OF BENEATH THE BRAVE
I've spent more than 20 years leading organizations, responding to crises, and helping people navigate some of life's toughest challenges. I've also lived with bipolar disorder since I was 17.​
I know what it's like to be the professional people turn to for answers and the person who needs support.
​
That's why I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to everything I do—giving people the confidence, language, and practical tools to navigate mental health challenges, advocate for what they need, and create meaningful change in their lives and workplaces.
The Mental Health of Your Company IS Your Business.
Your leaders are already navigating mental health challenges in the workplace.
The question is whether they have the confidence and skills to respond effectively.
I help organizations turn mental health awareness into meaningful action by equipping leaders to recognize when someone is struggling, navigate difficult conversations, respond with empathy, and build workplaces where people feel supported and valued.
​
A healthy workplace culture doesn't happen just because we say mental health matters.
It happens when people know what to do.
You've Spent Enough Time Putting Yourself Last.
You can be ambitious, capable, successful, and still struggle with your mental health.
