Psychology for TAC claims

The Transport Accident Commission (TAC) supports people injured in transport accidents in Victoria, including drivers, passengers, cyclists, motorcyclists and pedestrians.

A transport accident can leave more than physical injuries. Anxiety about driving, flashbacks, poor sleep, low mood and trouble getting back to normal routines are common. If your TAC claim has been accepted, TAC can pay for psychology treatment related to the accident.

How it works

  • Sessions are billed directly to TAC, with no cost to you, including evening and Saturday sessions.
  • Sessions are by video or phone, so you don't need to drive to appointments.
  • Check with TAC whether you need approval before starting treatment. You can contact TAC on 1300 654 329.

Victorian WorkSafe claims aren't offered, but TAC claims are. If your accident happened at work, ask TAC or WorkSafe which scheme your claim falls under.

For accident-related trauma, Ryan uses trauma-focused therapies such as EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy. More about trauma therapy.

  • No out-of-pocket cost for approved treatment
