EAP Programs

What an EAP is

An employee assistance program offers free and confidential assessments, short-term counseling, referrals, and follow-up — for you and, in most cases, the people who live with you. Counselors also work with managers on team and workplace concerns. EAPs help with work-related issues and plenty that has nothing to do with work.

What you get

• Direct access

  Call the counselor's office directly — no gatekeeping.

  First session usually within a few days. Crisis is handled immediately.

• Professional

  Counselors are qualified psychologists and clinicians.

  Your employer never knows who uses the service.

• Off-site

  Sessions take place at the counselor's office, not your workplace.

• Right-sized care

  Referrals to specialists or longer-term care only when needed.

  24/7 hotline with offices in the towns and cities where you live.
