NOTE: EAP benefits are only available to members residing in the United States. If your address is outside of the US, you won't be able to use your EAP benefits on Talkspace.
If you’re having trouble applying your Employee Assistance Program (EAP) benefits to Talkspace, here’s what you can do:
-
If you’re an existing Talkspace member, check if your EAP plan has expired.
If you’re an existing Talkspace member with an EAP plan that has expired, you'll need to add a new service to use your updated benefits. You won't have the option to update coverage for inactive plans.
If the option to add a new service is also unavailable, please contact support with the following information:
- The steps you've already taken to try adding your benefits.
- Documentation showing your eligibility for benefits, which should include approval start and end dates, and any authorization codes.
How can I tell if my plan has expired? Your plan expiry information is available on the Payment and plan page of your account. Find out how to navigate to that page here.

Double-check the benefits info entered.
To verify your EAP benefits, you may need to provide a keyword, an authorization/EAP code, or other details from your EAP provider. If you receive an error message, please refer to the corresponding solution below:

The “Something went wrong” error could mean:
❌ You already have a Talkspace plan under the same EAP benefits and can't use those benefits again.
Contact your EAP representative to confirm:
✔️ If you’re approved for more sessions or another service you’re looking to add (e.g., individual therapy, couples therapy, or psychiatry)
✔️ ️Whether they’ll notify Talkspace directly of the approval. If your EAP provider is reaching out to Talkspace, we’ll follow up with you by email within 5-7 days once we receive confirmation. If they aren’t contacting Talkspace directly, and you have documentation of your approval (including start and end dates and any authorization codes), reach out to our Support team for further assistance.Not eligible for more EAP sessions or service?
