After a car accident in NSW
These reactions are recognised responses to a frightening event, and they are treatable rather than something you simply have to wait out.
For some people the difficulty is a physical injury and the frustration, pain and worry that come with a slow recovery.
The North Shore and Northern Beaches are spread out, so many people here weigh up a local visit against telehealth from home.
How psychology is funded through CTP
A GP referral is often the practical starting point, because it documents the link between the accident and how you have been feeling.
For an accepted claim, the CTP insurer usually pays the treating psychologist directly, rather than you paying up front.
If you were injured in a NSW motor accident, the cost of seeing a psychologist can be funded through the Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurance scheme.
Before you enquire, it can help to read The Motor Accident Injuries scheme, explained.
