Navigating Recovery: How ICBC Counselling Offers Free Mental Health Support

If you’re in Victoria, BC or anywhere in Canada, you may be eligible for free mental health support through ICBC covered counselling.

What Is ICBC Covered Counselling?

The Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) recognizes the importance of mental health after a motor vehicle accident. That’s why they provide fully funded counselling sessions to anyone injured in a crash—drivers, passengers, cyclists, or pedestrians/witnesses.

Key benefits of ICBC covered counselling:

  • Up to 12 sessions fully covered within 12 weeks of your accident (extensions available if needed)

  • No upfront costs—ICBC is billed directly

  • Accessible in Victoria, BC or online anywhere in Canada

Why Mental Health Support Matters After an Accident

After a collision, it’s normal to feel shaken, anxious, or overwhelmed. Many people experience:

  • Flashbacks or nightmares
