Registered psychologist offering telehealth Australia-wide, with a Master of Counselling Psychology. Lists motor accident and workers compensation (WorkCover/TAC) claims among her practice areas, alongside PTSD, anxiety and grief. Confirm CTP cover when you enquire.
Anxiety about driving, broken sleep, flashbacks, low mood or feeling constantly on edge are common in the weeks after a motor vehicle accident.
For some people the difficulty is a physical injury and the frustration, pain and worry that come with a slow recovery.
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.
The scheme is regulated by the State Insurance Regulatory Authority (SIRA) under the Motor Accident Injuries Act 2017.
Psychological treatment is funded when it is reasonable and necessary for an injury caused by the accident, and your insurer approves the treatment plan.
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.
