In this episode of Headspace for the Workplace, I sit down with Dr. Mark Salzer, Professor and Chair of the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences at Temple University, and one of the country's foremost researchers on participation for people with serious mental illnesses and autistic adults. Mark's work focuses on what people are actually doing in their lives, work, school, dating, parenting, voting, volunteering, and what structural and environmental factors support or block their ability to participate fully. His research on how effort itself can become a barrier to participation is particularly relevant to the return-to-work context.The episode opens with a framing I use with employers regularly: the wouldn't, couldn't, shouldn't trap. After a suicide attempt, psychiatric hospitalization, or serious mental health crisis, well-meaning managers and HR professionals often arrive at a quiet set of assumptions: this person probably wouldn't want the pressure of their old role, probably couldn't handle the stress, probably shouldn't come back just yet. These assumptions feel protective. They are often the opposite. They replace the employee's own assessment of their readiness with the manager's discomfort, and they create exactly the kind of low-expectation environment that research shows delays recovery rather than supporting it.I share my own experience in this episode: returning to work after losing my brother Carson to suicide, with no FMLA leave left, and having to negotiate a return that was made possible not by policy but by colleagues who met me with dignity. Mark builds on that with two takeaways that are both simple and evidence-rooted: maintain hope that the person can return to the success level that got them hired in the first place, and make the return a collaborative, action-oriented partnership rather than a top-down accommodation process.
