Through the Personal Counseling portion of the EAP, employees and
their families have direct 24/7 access to assessment, crisis intervention, counseling, coaching, follow-up and referral. We provide supervisors and managers with Management Consultation on how to resolve difficult employee issues using approaches that benefit employees and the organization. Proactive support services such as Training, Work/Life Resources and Critical Incident Stress Debriefing are a standard part
