After a car accident in NSW
For some people the difficulty is a physical injury and the frustration, pain and worry that come with a slow recovery.
Talking things through with a psychologist experienced in scheme-funded work can help you understand what you are experiencing and what usually helps.
In the Illawarra and regional NSW, telehealth widens your options well beyond the practitioners within driving distance.
How psychology is funded through CTP
Keeping your claim number and any correspondence from the insurer to hand can make arranging the first sessions simpler.
For the first 26 weeks after a motor accident, treatment and care benefits are generally available regardless of who was at fault.
A GP referral is often the practical starting point, because it documents the link between the accident and how you have been feeling.
Before you enquire, it can help to read What to do if a treatment request is disputed.
