The Challenge

An Employee Assistance Program serving 50,000+ employees was struggling to provide accessible mental health support. Key challenges included:

  • Limited availability of counselors (only during business hours)
  • High wait times for appointments (2-3 weeks average)
  • Stigma preventing employees from seeking help
  • Inability to provide immediate support during crises
  • High costs of 24/7 human counselor coverage

These issues resulted in unmet mental health needs, increased workplace stress, and reduced program utilization despite high demand.
