EAP Services
What Services Does the EAP Offer?
Through the EAP, you and your dependents receive confidential assistance from caring professionals who can help you evaluate the situation, answer questions, explore possible alternatives, develop a plan of action, and then help you find a solution.
Short-Term Personal Counseling
EAP counselors provide short-term counseling (up to eight sessions per member, per issue, per year) and/or referral for the concerns that affect most employees in today’s hectic world. A few of the most common examples include the following:
- Marriage and relationship concerns
- Family and parenting questions
- Domestic violence
- Emotional and stress-related issues
- Alcohol and drug problems
- Grief and loss
- Work-related concerns
If long-term counseling appears necessary after the initial visit(s), your EAP counselor will advise you of additional counseling benefits that may be available through your health plan or other community resources.
