Flexible and Comprehensive Care and Counseling

Counseling

Up to a quarter of U.S. workers have been diagnosed with clinical depression. Nearly half have missed some work to deal with their condition. [SOURCE] Other research indicates that workers with depression miss twice as many days as their co-workers. [SOURCE] But not every person who could benefit from counseling services has access to these services.

How do you offer meaningful assistance to your employees and meaningfully address behavioral health in the workplace? More importantly, how can you support your employees in finding their own work-life balance?

Employee-focused Counseling Services

CARE currently provides Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) to a variety of businesses (including public-service agencies, municipalities, schools, and corporate entities large and small). Counseling for employees and their family members is a standard part of CARE’s Employee Assistance Program.

In contrast to many EAP providers, CARE draws on a deep well of clinical expertise with mental health, behavioral health, and substance-related struggles. We strictly abide by best-practice standards and evidence-based approaches in offering a robust set of services to promote employee wellness. Like all of our EAP offerings, CARE’s counseling services are “people first.” Most employee medical benefits programs limit participants to telephone-only counseling, exclude marital or couples counseling, or have co-pays that may make it difficult for employees to access services. CARE maintains a large affiliate network, so that your employees have the option of in-person sessions at convenient locations. We offer many couples counseling options with no co-pay. And CARE never subcontracts our after-hours crisis support line.

"CARE helped me to find a huge part of who I am. I love everything that I do with them, and I can’t wait to have a career where I get to do that sort of thing every day. That is the reason that I want to be a social worker."
