As an employee of an organisation that offers an Interlock Employee Assistance Program, you are entitled to confidential counselling services.
Whether you are concerned about problems at work or difficulties in your personal life, counselling can help you find a way through.
Many people wait until they are facing a major life crisis before they consider counselling, but often talking through niggling problems with a counsellor can help you take early action to avoid things getting worse.
Our counsellors are here to help you with a range of life concerns and problems including:
Depression or anxiety
Work stress
Grief
Financial problems
Relationship difficulties
Family difficulties
Conflict at work or at home
Drug, alcohol or gambling problems
Career planning and work-life balance
Handling change and transitions
Handling separation or divorce
Recovering from a traumatic incident.
You can choose telephone counselling, face-to-face counselling or secure online video counselling.
Your employer will not be told that you have applied for counselling. Counsellors never release names or personal details except with your written permission.
*Your employer may have a limit on the number of free sessions you can have each year.
