Meet Our Licensed Clinicians That Work With Spring Health EAP

Using Your Spring Health EAP Benefits:

You’ve already taken an important first step by trying to use your Spring Health benefits. If the process has started to feel frustrating, you’re not alone. At times, the platform may not list the clinician you want to work with as even an option or may indicate that a clinician isn’t accepting clients, has no availability, or isn’t offering in-person sessions—even when that doesn’t fully reflect their current schedule. This is often because some clinicians choose to manage their scheduling and referrals directly rather than through the Spring Health scheduling system. This allows them to review referrals personally and provide the most up-to-date availability.

So, before giving up, we encourage you to reach out to us directly.

The most effective way to connect with a clinician you’re interested in is to contact them by text or email to ask about availability and start the scheduling process through the clinician. For your provider, managing multiple scheduling systems can be challenging, and connecting directly with your preferred clinician often leads to quicker, more accurate information. It also allows you to determine fit before using one of your sessions.

Once you’ve connected, the clinician can guide you through the steps to have your care assigned to them through the Spring Health Care Team.

Steps on How to Get Manually Added to a Clinician's Spring Health Caseload

If you've already scheduled an appointment with one of our clinicians, but can't find them in the Spring Health app, don't worry. Spring Health can manually add the clinician to your case. This only needs to be done once.

Follow these steps:

  1. Call the Spring Health CalHR Phone Number 866-327-4762. You can also contact someone with Spring Health at 833-907-3311 or 855-629-0554 (Monday–Friday, available 7:00 AM until 11:00 PM Eastern Time).

  2. Let them know you have already scheduled an appointment with a specific clinician and would like to be manually assigned to their caseload.

  3. Provide the clinician's name and email address (for example: Maria Medvedev – maria@secondwindcounseling.com).

  4. Provide the date and time of your scheduled appointment and specify if it is in-person or telehealth

  5. Spring Health will email your clinician to verify the appointment. Once the clinician confirms it, you'll be manually added to their caseload and can continue using your Spring Health benefits.

 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact our office.

How to Cancel If My Department Forces or Mandates Me? Or Worse, I get placed on a Staffing Pattern?

Spring Health has a firm 24 hour cancellation policy, so it is imperative to contact your therapist via text or email to cancel/reschedule your Spring Health Appointment. 

Please do not contact Spring Health first, your clinician can directly advocate on your behalf so that you do not get docked one of your sessions.

Second Wind Counseling is grounded in the belief that strengthening clinicians strengthens care.

We believe in building clinicians up and fostering sustainable, thriving private practices. Our clinicians actively collaborate with Responder-Informed clinicians across agencies and private practices, supporting clinic and clinician success beyond our own walls. These providers are independent affiliates who own their own practices and are not employed or contracted by Second Wind Counseling, and they serve as trusted, frequently used referral partners.
