WorkCover Psychologist
Melbourne Services
Evidence-based support for anxiety, worry, panic, avoidance, physical symptoms, and feeling more able to manage daily life.
Recovering from a workplace injury can feel difficult to navigate
WorkCover psychology can support people experiencing psychological injury, workplace stress, trauma,
burnout, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, or difficulties returning to work.
At Reimagine Psychology, our WorkCover approved psychologists provide compassionate,
evidence-based support tailored to your recovery, wellbeing, and WorkCover journey.
Support for workplace injury and recovery
Recovering from a workplace injury is always a challenge, but you do not have to do it alone.
Our WorkCover psychologists can support you with psychological recovery, practical coping strategies, workplace adjustments, safe return-to-work planning, and navigating the WorkCover process.
Although WorkCover pays for the session fees,
we are independent psychologists here to support you.
We will always work with you and put your best interests first.
