At AXA XL, our award-winning benefits are designed to take care of the whole you – and that includes your mental health. During Mental Health Awareness month, we wanted to shine a spotlight on how you can use your benefits, in particular when life’s stressors start to add up. Explore our benefits portal for some ideas and read the story below for additional information.
Over the past few years, Americans have experienced more stress than before. According to the American Psychiatric Association, 43% of polled adults said they felt more anxious than they did the previous year, up from 37% in 2023.
Your AXA XL benefits can help you address many stressors. As you take care of you this month and beyond, try to incorporate these low-cost or no-cost solutions into your everyday life.
“I’m juggling life and feel everyday stress.”
Whether you’re navigating all of life’s demands or want someone to talk to about current events, you have resources you can turn to:
- All colleagues and their family members can access our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for short-term counseling and “life hack” support, at no cost to you.
- If you’re enrolled in the AXA XL medical plan, you can find a provider through the Cigna provider network. In addition, you can gain access to a broad in-network mental health provider network and personalized support for your whole family through Lyra.
“Life feels expensive, and I’m looking for ways to spend wisely.”
AXA XL offers financial-health benefits that can take the guesswork out of your budget.

- Looking for everyday support like pet insurance and the legal plan? We’ve got you covered. (Note: You can enroll in the legal plan during Annual Benefits Enrollment, as a new hire, or if you experience a qualified life event.)
