As an HR consulting firm and premium EAP provider, CCA helps healthcare organizations enhance the emotional well-being of their workforce and improve workplace culture. While traditional EAPs are missing the mark by not effectively addressing barriers to care, CCA intends to transform the model. Barriers such as stigma, concerns around licensure, lack of organizational trust, and negative perceptions of EAPs require a new and innovative approach.
CCA’s is the first nurse-focused and nurse-sensitive EAP and behavioral health consulting firm. In order to meet the specialized needs of this overburdened profession, CCA leverages decades of experience in mental and behavioral health with the expertise of our Nursing Advisory Board to co-develop nurse-led, evidence-based, programs designed to positively impact emotional well-being, engagement, and retention. These tailor-made solutions address emotional well-being and workplace issues surrounding:
-Emotional wellness for direct caregivers and leaders
-Healthy workplace culture
-Physical and psychological safety
-Nurse leader professional and emotional growth
-Suicide risk
-Moral resiliency and ethical competency
-Disruptive behavior and harassment
-DEI and unconscious bias
-Conflict management and team collaboration
-Substance use
-Incivility and violence in the workplace
-Executive and leadership coaching
Today's Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs)do more than support individuals; they also support the whole organization.
In the latest episode of Beyond the Benefits, Mark DeFee, BCC, LPC explores how EAPs can play a transformational role in shaping workplace culture, strengthening leadership, and addressing systemic wellbeing challenges.
From tackling burnout to empowering managers, workplace mental health isn’t just a personal issue — it’s a shared responsibility and a business imperative. Special guests Jay Sandys, PhD, LCSW, ACC, and Zoë Kobrin, join us to discuss how EAPs can move beyond crisis response and become a strategic partner for organizational health.

When people who live with a mental health condition share their stories, it can help others feel less alone and reduce any shame they may have when talking about their own mental health.
Sometimes, it can be helpful to create a plan before talking to your loved ones about your mental health. This can help you think through how you want to share and how they might respond. You can share your story in an informal setting while chatting with friends and family. You can also share your story in a more public way.
Whatever method you choose, this can be a powerful way to stop the stigma from spreading in your community.
