If you are thinking of getting counseling for any reason, the Employee Assistance Center (EAP) is a great place to start. The EAP is a great benefit designed to help keep you at your best at home and at work. At the Employee Assistance Center, you have the opportunity to discuss your concerns in a relaxed and confidential atmosphere.

• All EAP counselors are licensed professionals with over 50 years of collective counseling experience.
• EAP counseling is cost free and confidential.
• If the EAP determines that another type of service would be more appropriate for you, they will help you get a referral to a program that will better meet your personal needs.
