Frequently Asked Questions

Learn More

Free, brief, confidential counseling is available to employees, spouses or domestic partners, and dependent children (ages 6 - 26) by a staff of licensed mental health professionals.

The EAP counselors offer counseling and resources about many personal and family problems, including the following:

  • Marital conflict and parenting
  • Experiences with depression and anxiety
  • Stress (life and workplace)
  • Substance abuse
  • Grief and loss
  • Wellness strategies
  • Legal consultation
  • Financial consultation
  • Elderly care

You or your family member will meet with a licensed, experienced counselor. Your situation will be assessed and together you will develop a plan for improvement. If the assessment indicates brief therapy, EAP counseling will continue until the problem is resolved or improved.

If your problem is not EAP appropriate because it requires a specialist or long-term counseling, you will be referred to a provider through your medical insurance or a community resource.

There is no cost to you or your family when you use the EAP. You can use this benefit even if you are not insured through your company. Your employer provides this service to you and your family as an employee benefit.

  • Know risk factors and warning signs
    • De-stigmatize shame around mental health.
    • Attend a suicide prevention walk.
    • Remove lethal means.

Remember, there are resources for you and for those you care about. Do you know where to turn for hope when you need it?

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act

Intermountain Health's Employee Assistance Program follows federal (HIPAA) and state laws that require strict confidentiality of all client records. Records are released only when there is a written client request, by court order or by a licensing agency (i.e. DOPL). The law mandates that in cases of child abuse, elder abuse, or when a person may be a threat to his, hers, or someone else's safety, the counselor must notify the proper authorities.

All records are maintained in a secure, electronic case documentation system, separate from all other Intermountain records. The computer database of client information is accessible only to employees of Intermountain Employee Assistance Program. Utilization reports are provided to employers that contain aggregate data for the company. No report contains information that could identify an individual client.
