ABOUT

Psychological injury claims are among the most challenging in the workers compensation system, and the most likely to stall, escalate, or result in poor outcomes when the professionals around them don't understand what they're actually dealing with.
This session offers rehabilitation and return to work professionals a practical, clinically grounded framework for understanding psychological injury and complex claims. Drawing on her specialist experience as a clinical psychologist working at the intersection of PTSD, workers compensation, and medico-legal assessment, the webinar unpacks what makes these claims complex, how to communicate more effectively with injured workers, and what actually helps workers progress with recovery, without inadvertently making things worse. Attendees will leave with better clinical literacy, clearer strategies for working alongside treating psychologists, and a more confident approach to one of the sector's most difficult challenges.
