Mental Health Benefits @ IBM?
I know someone at IBM having a hard time, but doesn't have the energy to dive deep into the benefits. Could someone at IBM help me know what mental health services my friend might have available to them at IBM? Anything like counseling support? Easier access to therapists? Anything? Ty so much!

It’s actually an amazing benefit we have. 1-800-445-9720 is the number I have for EAP
Tysm!
And if they have Kaiser’s insurance. Therapy is almost free if all the sessions are conducted on video call. Not sure if other insurances give it for free. But if they are planning to consistently talk to a therapist then it is worth taking Kaiser.
If you have IBM Kaiser, regular therapy is almost free even if in person
Oh cool. Did not know that
Thank you all so much. I really appreciate the support :)
Yes! It is through the Employee Assistance Program (EAP). I believe it’s 12 free counseling/therapy sessions per person.
Ty! That's amazing. Amazon only has 3 haha.
Can my friend just search eap on your internal website and find it?
