Employee assistance (EAP)
Employee assistance counselling, confidential and short term.
For employers who want proper support for their people, and for staff whose workplace offers an EAP. Assessment, short-term counselling, referrals and follow-up.
What Phil works on
Phil has given EAP counselling to health professionals, educators, miners, managers, researchers, nurses and corporate teams.
- Conflict at work
- When you keep clashing with people and can’t see a way through. Phil has spent years helping people manage conflict before it costs them a job or a team.
- Emotional regulation
- When one emotion takes over the day, or you can’t enjoy anything. Work out your dominant emotion and what to do with it.
- Communication
- When feelings get the better of you in meetings or at home, and the words come out wrong.
- Self-belief
- When past experiences have you doubting yourself. Phil works with the confidence and competence loop: doing a little builds belief, belief lets you do more.
One hard week, pulled apart.

Dread, every Sunday night.
“I’ll be the next to go.”
Short with your team, and short with your kids.
Name the fear, ask for the facts, and plan one conversation.
For employers
Confidential for your staff, simple for you.
Staff speak to Phil in confidence. You get the arrangement, the invoices and, where staff agree, follow-up that helps them back to full strength.
Phil can also run training days for your team on trauma-informed practice, family violence informed practice, DBT skills and vicarious trauma. Training and supervision

Questions people ask
Does my employer find out what I say?
No. EAP counselling is confidential. Your employer may know you used the service, not what you talked about, unless someone’s safety is at serious risk.
How many sessions do I get?
That depends on your employer’s arrangement. Phil will tell you on your first call.
Can staff be anywhere in Australia?
Yes. Sessions can be by video or by phone, as well as in person in Logan.
