Our Services

EAP Services offer a range of services designed to support you and your family. These range from counselling, financial, careers and legal advice.

You can chose to receive support in person, by phone or through video conferencing such as Zoom or Teams.

Privacy & Security

Your privacy is important to us. Your sessions are confidential. Your employers will not be able to see who has attended counselling or what was discussed. To find out more view our privacy policy page

What to expect at your first EAP appointment

The first appointment with your EAP counsellor is all around getting to know you and what you want to achieve with the session so that we can ensure we meet your needs. You can expect to:

  • Possibly be given some screening tests to do to establish some baseline information.
  • Identify a plan for the 3 sessions you have together which will best meet your needs.

What is Rongoā Māori support service? 
Ensuring people are happy and healthy at work is the core purpose of the EAP Services programme. Ensuring that people have access to cultural support is also important. Understanding different world views on health and wellbeing is vital and while Western medical customs have a place in the healing process, so so does traditional medicine. Our Rongoā Māori Support Services is focused on providing Māori counsellors for Māori clients. If you are looking for more of a traditional approach to health and wellbeing we are able to provide Rongoā Māori Support Services.
