Solution: Counseling and Nutritional Advice
A manager called our hotline to seek counseling support for stress management. The first assessment session revealed that he had migraine and was concerned about his weight as a high risk for COVID-19. Further probing revealed that he was also consuming more than recommended portions of alcohol.
The counseling sessions focused on cognitive behavior therapy to cope with his stress and then progressed to education about managing alcohol addiction. This manager was also referred to our dietician/nutritionist so as to normalize his eating habits. The manager is reporting progress in his overall health and his coping mechanism with stress
