WorkCover psychology in Goulburn.
Psychology at our Goulburn clinic for people managing a WorkCover claim — a workplace incident, a mental injury, or stress and low mood that's built up on the job. Our AHPRA-registered psychologists work to a plan built around getting you back to work, using approaches like CBT, ACT, EMDR, and schema therapy. Most sessions need approval from your case manager before they start, and we handle that request for you.
How it works
WorkCover-funded psychology, step by step.
Notify your employer
Tell your employer about the incident as soon as you can so they can lodge the claim with their insurer. Not sure where to start? Call us and we can help you sort it out.
GP's Certificate of Capacity
Your GP completes a Certificate of Capacity setting out what you can and can't do at work, and confirms psychology as approved treatment.
Book and wait for approval
When you book, just tell us it's WorkCover. Most sessions need approval before they start — we send the treatment request to your case manager and let you know as soon as it comes back.
Sessions and case-manager updates
We work with you on the injury and on getting back to the job, sending updates to your case manager when the scheme asks for them. We handle the paperwork along the way.

Common questions
Questions we get asked a lot.
Do I need approval before sessions start?
Most of the time, yes. We send a treatment request to your case manager before treatment starts, and let you know as soon as approval comes back.
What if my claim isn't sorted yet?
Notify your employer as soon as you can so they can lodge it with their insurer — or call us and we can help you sort the claim before you book in.
Do I need a referral from my GP?
You don't need a separate referral, but your GP does need to complete a Certificate of Capacity that sets out what treatment — including psychology — has been approved.
Who do you send updates to about my sessions?
We send updates to your case manager when the scheme asks for them, and handle that paperwork so you don't have to chase it.
