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
