ICBC COUNSELLING
ICBC Counselling for Car Accidents
ICBC counselling is available to support your mental and emotional recovery after a car accident. Sessions are free and covered by ICBC.
After a motor vehicle accident (MVA), physical injuries often take priority, but the mental and emotional impact can be just as significant. Many people don’t realize that trauma from a car accident can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, panic attacks, and persistent fear while driving.
I provide ICBC counselling for individuals struggling with the emotional aftermath of motor vehicle accidents. Whether you were directly involved in an accident or a witness to one, therapy can help you process your experience, manage symptoms, and regain a sense of control.
ICBC pre-approves up to 12 sessions within the first 12 weeks of an accident, covering session with direct billing.
