Student Counseling Services (EAP)
Current IHP students can access EAP, a counseling service provided through Partners HealthCare. While the official name EAP (Employee Assistance Program) implies this service is only for employees of the Partners network, EAP services are also open to students of the IHP as well as their families. The EAP offers short-term counseling, and referral programs to help with all types of personal, family, school, and work-related concerns. The EAP provides free, confidential, and voluntary assessments, short-term problem-focused counseling, and referrals for treatment or other assistance, including a monthly support group for those involved with elder care. Please
see their website or stop by OSAS for more information.
The main EAP office is at 175 Charles River Park at MGH, but they also have offices at different Partners locations in the Greater Boston area, the North Shore, and on Cape Cod.
Call (866) 724-4327 to speak to a counselor. They are there to help.
