What is ComPsych, Your Member and Family Assistance Plan Provider?

The Member and Family Assistance Plan is provided through ComPsych GuidanceResources. It’s a benefit program that offers free, confidential support for STF members and their families through short-term counselling and work-life solutions services such as financial, legal and personal support.

Services include:

• Confidential Short-Term Counselling: Access to licensed, experienced clinicians for personal issues such as stress, grief, interpersonal relationships and substance use.
• Work-Life Solutions:
Financial: Consultations with financial professionals on budgeting, debt, taxes and retirement planning.
Legal: Referrals to lawyers for issues such as divorce, real estate and family law.
• Personal Convenience: Assistance with finding resources for dependant and elder care, moving, home repairs and more.
• Wellness: Tools and resources to help with making positive lifestyle changes such as help with diet or exercise.

These services are meant to be short-term and offer the advantage of quick turnaround times, allowing users to speak with an expert in just days rather than weeks or months. ComPsych counsellors are often available in the evenings and on weekends and offer both in-person and online services, giving you and your family maximum flexibility.
