Sara Primeau, MSW, ACSW, LCSW / EAP Counselor WorkLife Programs Employee Assistance is here to help Purdue employees and their family members in times of trouble. Personal, emotional, and psychological problems affect us all. Treatment works: People recover from mental illnesses; stress can be reduced; work relationships can improve; depression and anxiety can go into remission; marriages and troubled families can get better; it is possible to recover from drug or alcohol abuse. Our health care plans have improved by making mental health benefits accessible and affordable. Using WorkLife Programs Employee Assistance to identify a problem, make a plan of action, and access appropriate help does not mean you are "crazy.” When you feel hurt, confused, angry, sad, depressed, anxious, or have trouble getting along with other people, call me at WorkLife Programs Employee Assistance.
