COUNSELLING

Clinical Psychologists provide free counselling services to individuals and families affected by road trauma.

Initially, your call will be managed by the office manager. For many people, this one call is all that is required, and you may not need any further assistance. For many callers, just having some information about trauma and how it affects human beings is enough to make sense of your experience, and help you get back on track.

If you and the duty worker agree that a face to face or further telephone counselling appointments would be useful, an appointment will be made for you.

SUPPORT GROUP

The Road Trauma Support Team facilitates a support group. It is our experience that for some people, meeting with others who have been through a similar experience can be very helpful. Typically, our support group is jointly facilitated by a clinical psychologist and a trained volunteer.

DRIVERS SUPPORT

Drivers' experience of road trauma has some unique qualities. You may be coming to terms with the fact that a person is injured or has died. You may be awaiting the outcome of a police investigation and court process. The Road Trauma Support Team is able to provide support to drivers involved in traumatic vehicle collisions.

BEREAVEMENT

The process of grieving after being bereaved can be a long and isolating journey. Meeting other people who have been bereaved as a result of a road trauma can provide you with the opportunity to hear others peoples' experiences and contribute your own.
