REALiving EAP Support
REALiving is a company with a mission and a passion to help people be their BEST. All of the services offered by REALiving are delivered with this intention. We believe you are a person trying to be your BEST, and it's our job to help you achieve that.
School is winding down and with it (hopefully), your stress level. Maybe you want to make a game plan for how best to use the summer down time to prepare for the new school year. Or just to talk about whatever is bubbling up for you. This sign up is a personalized approach meant for those who would like support on any topic from a REALiving professional coach.
To connect with us, please review the available slots on this SIGN-UP for June 3rd and 4th and click on the button to sign up. Sign ups will not be visible to others. You may choose a half-hour slot or two consecutive half-hour slots for a total of one hour. Next, you will be asked to indicate your preferred method of contact: telephone (list your phone number) or virtual in the comment.
