Employee Assistance Program
The Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provides free, confidential counseling to employees, spouses or partners, and dependent children. Common issues discussed through the EAP may include marital conflict, parenting, depression, substance abuse, and financial problems, among others. You and your counselor will meet, assess the situation, and develop a plan for improvement. If the assessment indicates EAP appropriateness, there are no session limits. If your problem requires a specialist or long-term care, you’ll be referred to a provider through your medical insurance or community resources. If a referral is made beyond EAP services, you will be responsible for costs not covered by medical insurance.

Confidentiality
