Does your employer offer free counseling through an EAP?

An EAP - employee assistance program can be a great option to get some free counseling. Many employers offer it to their employees and some also extend it to their family members or persons they live with. There are many EAPs and their benefits vary. Here are some things to know about EAPs:
​

• The counseling sessions are confidential. The employer typically has a sign posted about the availability of an EAP with a phone number that the employee can call 24 hours, so from the privacy of their home, to activate assistance.
• They tend to offer between six and 10 free sessions. 
• Some allow for you to get a new set of sessions for newly identified problems. Some don’t.
• The counselor has to be registered with the particular EAP. 

I am registered with some EAPs and in the progress of registering with others. If you would like to find out if I am connected to your EAP please call (208) 321 5552.
