Records of your call and your counseling sessions are protected in a secure system. Within strict legal limitations, no one is given any information about your visit without your permission. Legal limitations require mandatory reporting when danger is a threat. I don't want anyone probing my mind. Psychoanalysis and psychiatric treatment are not what EAP counseling is about.
Clients share what information they want to share.
If you have EAP services available to you through your company benefit package, you have immediate access to a counselor. In most cases, your family members are eligible to contact your EAP themselves when they want confidential assistance in dealing with their problems. Don't let myths and misconceptions about counseling keep you from getting the help you may need to move forward toward a happier, more successful life. All rights reserved.
