The EAP is a benefit provided by your employer to help you manage work/life problems and achieve a healthy work/life balance. Think of EAP as your professional support system. Whatever your concern or worry might be, your EAP counselors are here to help. When you call, professional counselors will listen to you, assess your situation, then guide and coach you. The counselor can also refer you to a therapist near your home or workplace. Your EAP program is completely confidential and is a benefit fully paid by your employer.
What does it cost to call the EAP line?
Nothing. Each call or e-mail contact is free. Your employer provides it as an employee benefit for you and members of your household
