Workers Compensation

What is treatment under Workcover?

Your treating Doctor may refer you for psychological assistance in the event you have sustained an injury at work. This injury could be psychological, physical or both.

Our work cover approved psychologists provide treatment to injured workers in the NSW Workers Compensation with a focus on achieving a safe and durable return to work wherever possible.

 

How do I access therapy under Workcover?

To be able to access counseling through this referral pathway, you will need to have a work cover certificate signed by your treating Doctor and a referral letter outlining the issues.

 

How do I make an appointment?

To ascertain what type of therapy is suitable for your needs, you will need to discuss this with our administration intake staff who will allocate you to the most appropriate clinician.
