WSIB and Psychological Treatment
A workplace psychological injury can affect nearly every area of life—from sleep and emotional regulation to concentration, relationships, daily activities and the ability to work.
THRIVE Psychological Services provides psychologist-led mental health care for individuals experiencing work-related psychological symptoms and injuries, including clients receiving care through WSIB.
Our interdisciplinary team includes psychologists, psychotherapists, social workers and nurse psychotherapists, allowing treatment to be matched to the needs and clinical presentation of the individual.
