Mental Health Support
At MTM, your mental wellbeing matters just as much as your physical health. That’s why we offer several confidential, easy‑to‑use resources to support you whenever you need it.
With First Stop Health, you can connect virtually with compassionate coaches, therapists, or doctors for help with stress, anxiety, depression, burnout, grief, and more—on your schedule, including nights and weekends. Through the TELUS Health Employee Assistance Program (EAP), you and your family have 24/7 access to no‑cost, confidential support for work, life, or health challenges, including counseling, relationship and family concerns, legal and financial guidance, crisis support, and more. Through MTM’s partnership with Aflac, Empathy provides personalized guidance, compassionate support, and practical tools to help your family navigate the emotional and logistical challenges that come with the loss of a loved one. And with Onward from NeuroFlow, you can take a hands‑on approach to daily wellbeing through a personalized mental health app that offers mindfulness tools, mood tracking, self‑care activities, and rewards for participation.
Together, these programs give you multiple pathways to feel supported, stay resilient, and prioritize your mental health—your way.
