In this inspiring episode of CCA in Action, EAP counselor and licensed clinical social worker Alex Berger shares a story that showcases the proactive side of EAP support. When a director-level employee reached out for help navigating difficult conversations with her boss, Alex provided short-term, solution-focused counseling to help her reframe self-doubt, build confidence, and strengthen communication strategies.

From guided role play and goal setting to emotional regulation and ongoing therapy referrals, Alex helped the member shift from uncertainty to empowered leadership. This story highlights the lesser-known side of EAPs - not just for crisis, but for growth.

A must-listen for HR leaders, workplace wellness advocates, and anyone rethinking how to use EAPs as a tool for leadership development and everyday support.
