Crisis Response
Due to an unexpected employee death, we scheduled a crisis/grief group session with one of EFR’s counselors. Our sessions were well attended, with great sharing and conversations. The resounding message is that our colleague was loved and will be greatly missed. The EAP counselor was wonderful and provided great insight and support.

Student Assistance Program (SAP) & Outpatient Counseling
Maddox*, an elementary-aged student, struggled with anger outbursts, physical aggression, and difficulties with problem-solving. After spending years off-and-on in therapy seeking treatment with various providers only to remark that “none seemed to want to listen,” Maddox’s parents sought SAP services through their district.
Today, Maddox is completing his SAP sessions and moving towards outpatient counseling. He has reduced his anger outbursts and has learned skills to help him successfully navigate challenging days.
