At the end of the day they only care about profits.

That's probably why my last two employers moved from Shepell FGI where we had access to actual psychologists with full on sessions to Dialogue where you can only talk to a social worker for 30 min at a time and only focus on one topic. The new service is probably cheaper.

Ah we had Mourneau Shepell as well. Now our EAP has 6 consultation limit per person.

One way you can game this is to get your kids and other household members to call in for you with your issues. Then you get 6 more consultations!

Solution largely is working less and bosses who ain't dicks... This is something that the org needs to fix. Consultations with mental health professional will not fix this root cause.

True. But you only need one dick at the top to put the pressure on the whole hierarchy of people and suddenly everyone turns into dicks, especially when their paycheck is concerned.
