Take advantage of HFC’s free, confidential Employee Assistance Program

Employee Assistance Program

For all benefits-eligible employees, HFC offers the Employee Assistance Program through Ulliance, Inc.. The benefit applies to your immediate family members too. This benefit comes at no cost to you, your spouse, and dependents and is completely confidential.

The EAP can help you find solutions for many of life’s challenges, including concerns that are affecting your personal or work life. You have 24/7 access to resources, information, and counseling. There is the option of face-to-face or telephone counseling with a Life Advisor consultant who can help to explore your unique work/life balance needs and identify the right services to support both you and your family.

15 reasons to use the Life Advisor EAP

The EAP is here to help with concerns that impact your daily life, relationships, work/life balance, mental health, work and career, quality of life, and overall wellness – right now. Call today and speak with a mental health professional before your concerns become a crisis. You can talk to them about anything that is happening, whether it is work-related or not.

Here are 15 reasons you might use the Life Advisor EAP (and you might have entirely different reasons!):

  1. When you’ve had an argument with your spouse/significant other and are struggling with communication.
  2. When you’re worried about something your teenager said or did.
  3. When your good friend suddenly ghosts you and you have no idea why.
  4. When you’re stressed because there’s not enough money for the holiday season, summer vacation, or bills.
  5. When you have a legal question, and you’d rather not ask a family member.
  6. When you’re feeling overwhelmed with Just. Too. Much. Stuff. To. Do.
  7. You just got married, and your kids and your new spouse’s kids aren’t getting along.
  8. When you feel down or anxious, don’t know why, and aren’t sure how to deal with it.
  9. When you’re struggling at work making mistakes, calling in sick, or getting written up.
  10. When your grown kids are asking too much of you.
  11. When your spouse has lost their job and you don’t know where to turn.
  12. When you’re feeling isolated, lost, or lonely.
  13. When you’ve decided to reduce your spending and create a family budget.
  14. If you’ve thought about hurting yourself or someone you love.
  15. When you’ve had a death or loss in your family and would like to talk to someone.

These are just thought starters. The reasons to reach out to the Life Advisor EAP are as individual as you are.
