Three ways to help

Support that fits your organisation

Whether you need a fully managed programme or one-off support for an individual, we can tailor the right level of care.

Employee Assistance Programme

Three packages — Core, Peak and Supercare — so you can tailor the level of support to your workforce, with 24/7 confidential help all year round.

Ad-hoc counselling

Immediate support without an EAP contract — perfect for organisations who need structured counselling for an individual employee.

Specialist psychological services

From critical incident and bereavement support to psychological assessments, specialist therapies and mental health training for complex situations.

Ad-hoc workplace counselling

Professional support without a full EAP

Many organisations need support for a specific employee but aren’t ready to introduce an organisation-wide EAP. Through our partnership with Wisdom Wellbeing, we can arrange structured counselling on an individual basis, providing fast access to professional support when it’s needed most.

We can pre-authorise up to six structured counselling sessions, delivered remotely or face-to-face by qualified counsellors — with onward referral to specialist services where short-term counselling isn’t the most appropriate intervention.

  • No EAP contract required
  • Up to 6 pre-authorised counselling sessions
  • Remote or face-to-face delivery
  • Fast access to qualified counsellors
  • Confidential support for employees
  • Access to specialist onward referral pathways where appropriate
