Have you been in a car accident? Are you suffering from more than just physical injuries? Do you overwhelmed to keep up with all the appointments, while trying to recover from your your injuries? Did you know you are eligible to receive coverage for counselling/therapy sessions? Have you heard of something called Part 7 benefits?
In our practice, our team of six therapists, have the experience of working with hundreds of ICBC cases of acute trauma, depression, driving anxiety, and more that was due to a mvc. Our clients have been approved for as many as 30 sessions per client, per collision, and we take care of all the documentation and approval process so that you do not have to worry about this. We will work with your law team, if you have one, and if you do not have one, we will work on your behalf to advocate for your case to get you the support you need to heal from your mvc related injuries. We can also collaborate with your occupational therapist, physiotherapist, and doctors to provide a full circle of care, if you wish.
At Burnaby Square Counselling, we truly care about your wellbeing and want to get you back on your feet, both physically, and mentally, so that you can get back to being and doing what you did before the accident, and put this experience behind you. In order to do that, it is important to learn what trauma is, and how we work with it.
In Burnaby Square Counselling, we work with clients who have been in to car accidents (recent and some even 7-10 years ago). They came because they did not initially deal with the shock and now years later the symptoms have developed into major concerns. Our clinical counsellors use a gentle gradual approach to healing the trauma of car accidents. We take immediate action on accessing and renegotiating the trauma. Of course, this is done with an encouragement of a sense of safety. We teach you how to allow yourself to process the accident, not just with your mind but also with your body. It is about focusing on sensations and allowing yourself to feel the emotions without judgements. We look at the anxiety and depression symptoms that surfaced after the accident, and work through them. You have this innate ability to heal yourself and all we do is show you how.
