Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Empowering Your Team with Ongoing Mental Health Support
The Employee Assistance Program was born out of the extensive experience Cinderleaf Therapy has working with humanitarian aid workers. Burnout and stress in the humanitarian context are unfortunately understandably prevalent. More surprising perhaps were the parallels that began to emerge regarding the mental health concerns of burnout and stress in the workplace for people in a whole range of workplace settings. These issues are not isolated, and the pace of modern life can easily lead to burnout without proper care.
Burnout is characterised by total exhaustion and prevents people from being as active, productive, fulfilled, and motivated as they would like. The Employee Assistance Program provides direct 1-1 counselling sessions to prevent and manage burnout, relaxation sessions for teams to reduce stress and encourage team cohesion, and psychological first aid workshops tailored to the workplace to equip employees with the tools they need to support themselves and colleagues.

Since early 2022, LHI has partnered with Cinderleaf Therapy’s Employee Assistance Program.
What began as a local resource has grown into a vital, organization-wide pillar of support. Through Jaz’s tailored counseling sessions, team members not only receive practical assistance for day-to-day challenges but also benefit from a holistic approach that nurtures their overall emotional well-being and personal growth.
Over the past two years, we’ve expanded this partnership across multiple countries and working contexts. Time and again, our staff report heightened awareness of their own coping capacities, a more proactive commitment to self-care, and the reassurance that comes from having a consistent, confidential support system. This emphasis on mental health has created a more resilient workforce, where individuals feel heard, understood, and better equipped to handle stress and difficult situations.
These benefits ripple throughout our organization – improving morale, strengthening team cohesion, and fostering a safer work environment – and allow LHI to retain a more effective and engaged workforce, and enhance our capacity to serve communities around the world.
