Taking the first step toward recovery can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do this alone. Book a free 15-minute phone consultation today to see how our ICBC-registered therapists can support you.

ICBC’s Enhanced Care Program – How It Works

Enhanced Care automatically covers you for pre-approved treatments in the initial 12 weeks after the crash. But that time can go by quickly, so it’s important to book your appointments right away to get the most out of your benefits.

  • Pre-Approved Counselling Sessions: You are entitled to 12 pre-approved therapy sessions within the first 12 weeks after your accident.
  • Direct Billing to ICBC: No out-of-pocket costs for sessions – we bill ICBC directly.

Taking advantage of these sessions as soon as possible ensures you receive the emotional and psychological support needed for a smoother recovery.

How Counselling Can Help After a Car Accident

Car accidents don’t just cause physical injuries – they can also lead to lasting emotional and psychological stress. Common mental health challenges after an accident include:

  • Anxiety or Fear: Nervousness about driving or being a passenger again.
  • Depression: Feelings of sadness, helplessness, or frustration with your recovery process.
  • Post-Traumatic Stress: Flashbacks, nightmares, or heightened fear in traffic.
  • Sleep Disturbances: Trouble sleeping due to racing thoughts or discomfort.
  • Chronic Stress & Irritability: Emotional exhaustion, difficulty concentrating, or feeling overwhelmed.

Therapy helps you process these emotions, develop coping strategies, and regain confidence in your daily life.
