Something on the basics of cognitive-behavioral therapy that allows you to do rudimentary self-therapy and ‘teach’ it to others. [I think this is useful beyond the narrow use case of “treat clinical depression”. It also doesn’t need to be labelled as CBT, e.g. The Charisma Myth works too for some aspects.]
Also just some rudimentary knowledge on common mental health issues, e.g. things like this.
Similar for other non-epistemic things that might be big deals for people you interact with, like idk “common work-life balance challenges for parents” or “common challenges for Chinese-Western conversations” or whatever. Unfortunately I don’t know of great specific sources off the top of my head.
[I have split my answer loosely across ‘themes’ to strike a balance between spamming answers and allowing more fine-grained voting/discussion.]
