Make time to care for yourself today

Dallas ISD cares about the overall health and well-being of team members and knows how important mental health is. When life gets busy, it can be easy for our well-being to take a back seat, and it can become difficult to make time to care for ourselves. To help make it a little easier to take the needed time to care for your well-being and the well-being of your family, the Benefits Department is excited to share that the district’s Employee Assistance Program partner, TELUS Health, now has online booking available through the TELUS Health One platform and app.

It’s quick, easy, and confidential to book an appointment with a counselor for individuals, couples, or family counseling appointments. Team members can select the day and time that works best for you as well as see details about the counselors, such as gender, language, and areas of specialization, to select the counselor that fits your needs best. Telephone, video, and in-person sessions are available through the online scheduling tool. For in-person appointments, please use the ‘chat’ feature when prompted.

To begin, login to the TELUS Health One platform at one.telushealth.com or download the TELUS Health One app from your app store. Your username will be your work email address and your password will be the same one you use to log into our work system. 

Remember, the EAP provides short-term counseling for you, your spouse/partner, and any dependent family members. Counseling sessions can assist with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and more. And, as always, you can reach TELUS Health EAP 24/7 at 972-925-4000 Option 3. For additional questions, employees may contact the Human Capital Management Benefits Department at 972-925-4300, email benefits@dallasisd.org, or click here for information on the Benefits Website.
