New: Support and Educational Groups Now Forming
New Groups Forming for Fall
In the past, the EAP has hosted a Grief Support Group that has been very well received. Thus, we are in the process of forming one which will begin in the next few weeks. The group will be held at lunch time (noon-1:00) in the EAP office conference room at 419 West Redwood Street, Suite 560.
EAP counselors are determined to continually try and meet ever changing needs of the employees on campus. Thus, 2 new groups have been suggested:
Sleep Hygiene (which will include information about how to get better sleep. Better sleep has been connected with better mental and physical health. Come and meet with us to find ways to fall asleep faster, stay asleep through the night and awaken refreshed! Zzzzzz…)
Menopause Support (If you are experiencing symptoms related to menopause, please join us for this informative and supportive group!)
If you are interested in being part of the above listed groups, please contact Maureen McCarren at mmccarre@psych.umaryland.edu to express your interest. You can also call her at 667.214.1560 for more information.
If you have other ideas for groups you would like to see hosted in the EAP, please let us know. We are here to serve you!
Mediation between Employees
Did you know the EAP provides mediation services?
If two employees are having trouble working together, the EAP might be able to help. Both employees can be referred (or refer themselves) to the EAP for Mediation Services. Different counselors would meet one-on-one with each employee. Then, the employees and the counselors will all meet to talk about problems and solutions. Often, these meetings are only needed one time, but can span a period of time to monitor progress and use the meetings as a forum to talk about other issues that might arise. Many times, misunderstandings have been resolved, new relationships have been formed and productivity has risen. Work doesn’t have to be something you dread. It can be a place you look forward to going to and feel accomplished as you and your team work together toward a common goal.
