It’s no secret that the past year has been hard on us all. We’re all looking for ways to support each other and ourselves.
Reliant Behavioral Health, the company that administers Asante’s Employee Assistance Plan, has a chatbot named “Tess” that provides emotional support and check-ins over text messaging to boost your wellness. Tess is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to talk to you whenever and wherever you need.
The feature allows you to:
- Chat with Tess for unbiased emotional support
- Build resilience and self-awareness by practicing coping skills at your convenience
- Get personalized support because the more you chat with Tess, the more she will get to know your needs and preferences
- Find resources relevant to your needs
To get started, text “Hi” to (650) 825-9634, and use the company code “Asante.” The bot will ask you a series of questions, then delve more deeply into your area of concern. The conversation is informal (Tess makes use of emoticons and emojis), but contains insights and solutions similar to in-person counseling.
If you have any questions, email the Asante Benefits department or call (541) 789-4551. You can also submit a case in the Ask HR section of myHR.
If you have a question, please contact the author or relevant department directly.

I can attest that this service is very cool! Tess really does get more intuitive and truly helpful the more you answer her questions. She does say funny things and it’s neat to witness such technological marvel. Give it a try! You don’t have anything to lose and an artificially intelligent supporter to gain.
