How Wellness Talks Can Help

If you’ve been involved in a motor vehicle accident, you may be eligible for counselling coverage through ICBC. Under the Insurance Vehicle Act (effective April 1, 2019), clients injured in accidents occurring on or after this date are pre-approved for counselling—no doctor’s referral required. Within the first 12 weeks after your accident, you can access up to 12 fully covered counselling sessions to support your emotional and physical recovery.

​

At Wellness Talks, we understand that accidents can affect every part of your life. Beyond physical pain, you may be experiencing anxiety, fear of driving, sleep issues, irritability, or intrusive thoughts. Our trauma-informed counsellors help you process these experiences safely and rebuild confidence, stability, and peace of mind.

​

Navigating Post-Accident Trauma

Car accidents can reshape lives in an instant. You may find yourself coping with emotional symptoms such as:

​

• Fear of driving or traveling

• Panic attacks and hypervigilance

• Intrusive memories or nightmares

• Fatigue and disrupted sleep

• Muscle tension, headaches, and restlessness

• Irritability or difficulty concentrating

​​

Our approach combines compassion, evidence-based therapy, and nervous system regulation techniques to help you manage both the visible and unseen impacts of trauma.
