Headway's mission is to make mental healthcare affordable and accessible. To do this, Headway is working with Anthem to simplify the process of finding and booking an in-network mental health clinician who is a great fit through technology, which allows clinicians to easily run their practice and have more time for their clients.

An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a confidential workplace benefit that provides short-term mental health support to employees and their families at no cost. EAPs typically offer 4 free sessions per issue per year and are designed for brief, solution-focused therapy.

• Call your employer's Anthem's EAP support line (found at the top of the page in the blue banner)
• Create an online account to obtain your MRN online

For Anthem EAP, clients can only see clinical psychologists & master level therapists.

• Cost: EAP sessions are completely free (no copays, deductibles, or out-of-pocket costs)
• Session limits: EAPs have a set number of sessions per issue (4 sessions)
• Purpose: Designed for short-term, focused treatment of specific problems
• Transition: After EAP sessions end, you can continue with regular insurance if needed

While we do our best to match you with a provider who aligns with your needs and preferences from the start, we understand that finding the right fit is sometimes an iterative process. If your initial match isn't the right one, you can easily switch to another provider within the Anthem EAP network and continue utilizing your remaining sessions.
