We know taking the first step on your mental wellness journey is sometimes the hardest part, and we wanted to make it easier. First Stop Health is a mental wellness resource provided through TNAA that is entirely free for all our travelers and corporate staff. Anyone in your household can receive help through First Stop Health at no cost, and you don’t need to have TNAA’s insurance to access this benefit.
First Stop Health puts you in contact with a licensed counselor for short-term sessions as they help you navigate life’s difficult situations. When using First Stop Health, you’ll talk with a counselor specializing in your area of need, such as depression and anxiety, personal or professional stress, substance abuse, family and relationship issues, and more. These counselors can connect you with resources within your insurance network for long-term care as well. Access this service on your time – day or night shift – and through the method that works best for you, including by phone, email, or app.
