Mental Health – Your 4th Annual Checkup

You should go to the doctor, dentist and optometrist every year for checkups, but what about a checkup for your mind?

Everyone deals with tough times, but even happy events like a new job, a marriage, or a new baby can add stress. That is when taking an hour for a session, or two, or three, with a counselor, might help you navigate new or persistent challenges in your life and increase your overall well-being.

The state’s group insurance program provides an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to all benefit eligible employees regardless of their enrollment in any other program. The provision for this benefit is detailed in each of the medical plan contracts posted on the Medical page.

Worried about confidentiality? Neither the group insurance program nor your agency receive any information about your inquiries or your sessions with the counselor. 

There are several ways to access the GuidanceResources(R) information and programs.

This benefit is here for you, in good times and bad, to help you stay at your best.
