Professional EAP Support That Makes a Difference

Lifeskills Australia provides EAP counselling Sydney employers trust. Our experienced professionals deliver confidential, evidence-based support that improves mental health, enhances employee wellbeing and helps organisations navigate workplace challenges with care and confidence. We partner with businesses of all sizes to provide effective employee assistance programs (EAP) that offer practical guidance, professional support, and a human touch. Whether you’re managing a small team or a national workforce, our EAP services help you support employees facing personal or work-related concerns.

What Is an Employee Assistance Program?

An employee assistance program (EAP) is a confidential service designed to support staff members and, in many cases, their immediate family members through difficult times. EAP counselling can help employees address a wide range of personal, emotional and work related issues that may be affecting their wellbeing or performance.

Common concerns include stress, anxiety, grief, workplace bullying, communication breakdowns, physical health issues and relationship challenges. Through early intervention, EAP counselling reduces the risk of long-term burnout and creates healthier, happier workplaces. Our employee counselling service is delivered by qualified professionals and is always strictly confidential. Sessions are available face to face, by phone, or via secure video. Employees can access EAP support directly without going through HR, ensuring privacy and peace of mind.

Supporting Employee Wellbeing with Care

Lifeskills Australia’s EAP program focuses on supporting employee wellbeing with practical, personalised and professional service. Our experienced clinicians work with individuals to improve communication skills, build resilience and resolve personal or work related concerns that are impacting productivity or mental health.

We understand the crucial role that wellbeing services play in building team cohesion, reducing absenteeism, and improving morale. That’s why we provide flexible EAP services that are easy to access, evidence-based, and delivered by caring professionals. Our service can also extends to employees’ immediate family. We recognise that family issues, parenting stress and relationship issues can affect someone’s capacity to work effectively. Offering EAP access to immediate family members helps staff feel supported both at work and at home.

Confidential, Professional Support

All EAP counselling at Lifeskills Australia is strictly confidential. Employers do not receive details about who is accessing support or what is discussed, unless the employee provides written consent. This commitment to privacy is essential in creating a safe space for honest conversations. Every session is conducted by a qualified professional, either a psychologist or a counsellor with extensive experience in employee assistance. Our team provides compassionate, practical support that is relevant to both personal and professional life. Sessions are available during business hours and after hours when required, we can also arrange emergency support at short notice. Appointment times are flexible and can be booked directly by the employee.

Access EAP Services That Work

We make it easy for organisations to access EAP services that genuinely support staff. Our onboarding process is simple, and we provide clear communication so employees understand how to access help. All they need to do is reach out and support is just a call away. Counselling sessions are offered on a pay-per-use basis.  We’ll ensure your employees receive the care they need, when they need it. If required, we provide organisations with regular reporting on usage trends and wellbeing indicators. These reports are always de-identified and can help you spot recurring issues, improve resources, and strengthen workplace culture, all while maintaining confidentiality.

Whether you’re a corporate office, a school, a health provider, or a trade business, we’ll help you design an EAP program that meets the needs of your team. We support small businesses who may not have an internal HR department but still want to offer professional support to their staff. For larger organisations, we provide scalable EAP solutions, critical incident response, and broader wellbeing initiatives.
