Discuss a partnership
Why invest in employee counselling?
Supporting mental health at work is an investment in your people, your culture and the long-term strength of your organisation.
Stress, burnout and wider mental health challenges can affect morale, retention, absence levels and day-to-day performance. Offering access to counselling gives employees a clear route into support while showing that wellbeing is taken seriously within your workplace.
The partnership has no joining fee, no hidden costs and no VAT. It is designed to give organisations a straightforward way to make professional therapy more accessible to their workforce.
Flexible support that fits around working life
Employees can access one-to-one counselling through a confidential self-referral process.
Sessions last 50 minutes and can be delivered online by secure video call or in person at the Ivy Light premises in Lincoln. This allows support to feel more accessible across different roles, working patterns and personal preferences.
Employers can choose fully funded sessions, part-funded support or a shared contribution model, making it easier to shape the service around budget and need.

A practical alternative to more complex models
The programme is designed to feel personal, flexible and easier to implement than more traditional workplace support models.
While it offers some of the same benefits organisations may expect from an Employee Assistance Programme, the Ivy Light approach is often a better fit for SMEs, community organisations and employers who want support that feels more direct and more human.
If your business needs a more bespoke workplace wellbeing solution, Ivy Light can also discuss a tailored approach.
