        This Week’s Show: Maintaining Mental Health at Work

        by Tawny L. Alvarez on January 23, 2021

        On Saturday, November 21, Tawny interviewed Lindy Graham, LCSW and Founder of Wellspace Maine, and Celine Frueh, Human Resources Director of Allagash Brewing Co., for this segment of HR Power Hour. For this episode, Lindy, Celine, and Tawny discuss maintaining mental health for your employees, especially during this time of COVID-19.

        Lindy Graham, LCSW, launched her psychotherapy practice in Portland, Maine, fourteen years ago, addressing the needs of adults, adolescents, and couples. Her primary areas of focus have been, and continue to be, anxiety, depression, eating disorder treatment and LGBTQ health. In tandem with these services, Lindy and her team created a two-year psychotherapy fellowship program for therapists interested in deepening their clinical practice. In order to more clearly position her portfolio of services, Lindy reorganized the practice last year into three divisions for individual clients, employer clients, and training candidates. Her practice today operates under the umbrella name WellSpace Maine, while its independently-managed employer division is called WellSpace@Work.

        After attending St. Michael’s College in VT, Celine Frueh studied HR Management at Bentley University outside of Boston, while starting her HR career in the technology industry. Celine has now practiced HR for over twenty years, and has advanced certifications from SHRM (Society for Human Resource Management) and HRCI (Human Resources Certification Institute.) After 8+ years as HR Director at Allagash Brewing, she continues to enjoy the creative and collaborative world of craft beer, its unconventional and authentic approach to business, and HR as integral support to keep companies strong.
