How to Find a Cigna Behavioral or Emotional Health Provider: A Step by Step Guide

Onsite Behavioral Health Counselor

Short-term, onsite counseling is available to all employees for no additional charge. The onsite behavioral health counselor will assist employees maneuver through the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and deliver a deeper level of engagement. They can also provide management consultation and training support.

In addition, our onsite behavioral health counselor may serve as a local resource for:

• Critical incident stress management services (natural disasters, employee deaths and disruptive events)
• EAP wellness seminars and participation in wellness events

Contact Your Behavioral Health Counselor

We are currently in the process of hiring a new On-site Clinician and are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. In the meantime, you can contact the Employee Assistance Program at 1-877-622-4327 or by going to www.myCigna.com to find a provider (Employer ID: Richmond).  We will communicate to the University community as soon as we have identified a new onsite counselor.
