Employee Assistance Service for Education - EASE

Counseling Services for Individuals
EASE provides confidential counseling, phone consultations, and community referrals for ERUSD employees and their families.
EASE counselors specialize in:
- family troubles
- emotional distress
- drug/alcohol problems
- job anxieties and stress
- grief, loss, and life transitions
EASE is primarily an assessment and brief counseling service that focuses on early support. Counselors work with employees, supervisors, and labor representatives to identify concerns and offer proactive help.
EASE is not a replacement for your health-care plan, but it is a helpful and effective extension of your existing benefits.
🌱 EASE Wellness Spotlight: Welcoming the New Year
As we move into the new year, many of us are carrying a mix of reflection, fatigue, hope, and momentum. January is a natural pause — a chance to reset without pressure and focus on small, meaningful shifts that support well-being at work and beyond.
This month’s EASE wellness resources are designed to support staff through this transition with practical tools, gentle guidance, and accessible supports.
