After a car accident in NSW
Intrusive memories of the crash and a strong urge to avoid driving or the accident site can build over time if left unaddressed.
It is common for the psychological effects of an accident to surface a little later, once the immediate practical matters have settled.
Working by video means you can begin from home rather than driving to a clinic, which can help while getting back behind the wheel still feels hard.
How psychology is funded through CTP
Psychological treatment is funded when it is reasonable and necessary for an injury caused by the accident, and your insurer approves the treatment plan.
Keeping your claim number and any correspondence from the insurer to hand can make arranging the first sessions simpler.
Whether a particular psychologist takes CTP clients is decided practice by practice, which is why it is worth confirming before you book.
