what is eConnect®?

Life can be a juggling act. It takes a lot of time and energy to balance work, family and personal issues. eConnect® can help you address these challenges by providing professional consultation and guidance for a wide array of personal and work-related concerns, such as stress, anxiety, family issues, grief, work-life balance, work-related pressures, relationship problems, depression, substance abuse and anger management.

eConnect® is a secure counseling platform that provides confidential technology-based access to licensed behavioral health professionals. eConnect® clinicians are available for 25- or 50-minute video, telephonic or web chat sessions which can be scheduled at your convenience between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., Central Standard Time, Monday through Friday.

eConnect® participants are eligible for a pre-determined number of video, telephonic or web chat sessions per presenting issue, based on the model selected by your employer, association or university. If your concern is not resolved after the sessions have been exhausted, the eConnect® clinician will coordinate a referral to the most appropriate external resource.
