Wholistic. Collaborative. Customized.

At WorkLife Wellness Lab, we are educators at heart that understand that mental wellness and career success are deeply interconnected. We also know that finding time for wellness can be a challenge. If you're like most working adults, attending in-person wellness appointments can take up to three hours of your day, not just one. That's a significant time commitment, especially when you're already juggling numerous responsibilities and feeling burnt out.

By offering high-value online sessions and utilizing a range of online tools through your experience with us, we provide an efficient solution that integrates seamlessly into your busy schedule. No more additional stress trying to get too and from appointments—just the support you need, right at your fingertips.

Whether you're a working adult living with a complicated relationship, ADHD, Autism, health complications, or navigating a major life change while also trying to work, we're here to guide you on your WorkLife journey.

where do I start?

Our career coaching and planning services are centered around the #1job1offer Principle, which places a strong emphasis on guiding clients toward securing their ideal job opportunity. However, we go beyond mere job placement. Our mission is to teach clients sustainable and career-building strategies that not only help them land that coveted position but also foster the development of an authentic and fulfilling Work-Life Wellness Journey.

We teach you how to identify high-fit opportunities, prepare for applications, define your search plan, get ready for interviews, and effectively follow up.

Job Analysis and Return to Work Adjustment Training

Transitioning back to work or sustaining employment with a chronic condition doesn't have to be difficult.

WORK INCENTIVES ANALYSIS AND DISABILITY BENEFITS COUNSELING

Work Incentives and Benefits Planning is a service for adults who are planning to return to work but have questions or concerns about their return to work activity and the impact on their benefits. This educational service is designed to build your advocacy skills and help you better understand the layers of incentives that protect you from losing your public or federal benefits, such as SSDI, SSI, or benefits attached to healthcare, right away.

Work Incentives and Benefits Analysis Report

Work Incentives reviews are for individuals with confirmed SSDI, SSI, Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, HUD/Section 8 and include an analysis of the impact return to work activities will have on your cash-paying benefits. A Work Incentives review is ideal if you are actively considering returning to work. These reviews consist of 4 meetings, and include education and training on remaining work incentives and provide you training on how you will report changes in work status moving forward.

Benefits Application Support & Information Community Referral Services

This is a hourly service and is best if you are seeking support with submitting benefits related paperwork such as work activity documents, changes in income, employment, or housing arrangements or family composition.

Benefits Counseling Sessions

This service is most beneficial for individuals who have questions related to their benefits and are not currently planning to return to work. Typically, clients request hourly consultations when they receive new information or experience changes that raise concerns about the impact on their benefits or when they need assistance in understanding why their benefits have stopped or changed.
