Improve Your Professional Well-Being

The University at Buffalo recognizes that personal problems at home or interpersonal issues at work can negatively affect one’s job performance, mental health, and/or physical health. The goal of the Employee Assistance Program is to help staff and faculty deal with these problems and issues in the most positive way possible. The entire university, including YOU, benefits from employees who are feeling good and working productively.

Common Concerns

What You Can Expect

When you meet with Employee Assistance you will get a private and confidential meeting on the campus of your choice with one of the EAP staff. The EAP consultant will listen to your concerns, help you think about your situation differently, and provide ideas about how to address those concerns. If a referral to an outside agency is desired, your EAP consultant will work with you to find the best resources, based on your concern, preferences and insurance carrier.

Workplace Consultation

If you are experiencing difficulties at work, you can reach out to your EAP professional for support and recommendations.

Contact an Expert

We all need support sometimes. For confidential consultation or 1-on-1 meetings at no charge to you, referrals to specialists, and/or general information on how to help yourself or others manage personal and/or work-related concerns, please reach out to us.
