HOME / WORKPLACE MENTAL HEALTH INJURY THERAPY
Early and ongoing support for workplace psychological injuries
Workplace Mental Health Injury Therapy with Tele Psych provides structured, evidence based treatment for psychological injuries sustained at work. These injuries may develop following a specific incident or build over time due to ongoing stress, bullying, harassment, excessive workload or exposure to trauma. Our service is designed to support early intervention as well as longer term therapy, helping workers recover, improve functioning and regain confidence at work and in daily life.
Tele Psych works with injured workers, employers, HR colleagues and insurers to ensure therapy is accessible, appropriate and aligned with workplace and compensation requirements. Psychological injuries are often complex and can affect concentration, sleep, mood, relationships and work capacity. Early access to a workplace injury psychologist can reduce symptom severity and support better long term outcomes.
Our clinicians provide workplace mental health therapy via secure telehealth, making it easier to access care without travel or time away from recovery. We focus on practical, goal oriented treatment that supports emotional wellbeing while addressing functional and work related challenges. Therapy is delivered with a trauma informed and respectful approach, recognising the impact that workplace stress and injury can have on a person’s sense of safety and identity.
How the process works for workers and employers
The process for starting psychological injury therapy can vary depending on the workplace context and whether a workers compensation claim is involved. In many cases, workers may begin by speaking with their GP, employer or HR team to discuss symptoms and next steps. A referral from a GP or treating practitioner is commonly required, particularly when therapy is funded through workers compensation or an insurer.
Tele Psych assists by clarifying what documentation is needed and how therapy can commence. This may include a referral letter, confirmation of claim status, approval for sessions or details of reporting requirements. We regularly work with employers and HR colleagues who are seeking early intervention support for staff experiencing work related stress or psychological injury, even before issues escalate.
Once therapy begins, clients are matched with a psychologist experienced in workplace mental health therapy. Treatment is structured and collaborative, with clear goals that may include symptom reduction, improved coping, better emotional regulation and gradual return to work where appropriate. Progress is reviewed regularly to ensure therapy remains effective and aligned with recovery goals.
For cases involving workers compensation mental health treatment, Tele Psych provides professional communication and reporting to insurers or case managers as required. This helps ensure transparency, supports ongoing approval where clinically indicated and reduces administrative burden for the worker.
Evidence based therapy focused on recovery and function
Tele Psych delivers psychological injury therapy using evidence based modalities that are well suited to workplace related mental health concerns. Treatment approaches are selected based on individual needs, diagnosis and recovery goals, rather than a one size fits all model.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is commonly used to address anxiety, depression, work related stress and unhelpful thought patterns that can develop following a workplace injury. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports clients to build psychological flexibility, manage distressing thoughts and reconnect with personal values, which can be particularly helpful when navigating work related challenges.
For clients who have experienced trauma in the workplace, including incidents, threats or prolonged exposure to distress, EMDR may be used to process traumatic memories and reduce ongoing symptoms. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy informed strategies can support emotional regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness, especially where emotions feel overwhelming or unpredictable.
Throughout therapy, the focus remains on recovery, functional improvement and practical coping. This may include strategies to manage stress, rebuild confidence, improve sleep, communicate needs at work and plan a sustainable return to duties when appropriate. Tele Psych recognises that recovery from a psychological injury is not only about symptom reduction but also about restoring a sense of control, safety and capability.
Our clinicians work collaboratively with clients and, where relevant, with employers, HR teams and insurers to support positive outcomes. Communication is clear, professional and clinically focused, ensuring all parties understand progress and next steps.
For workers seeking a trusted workplace injury psychologist, and for organisations looking for reliable workplace mental health therapy, Tele Psych offers experienced, compassionate and accessible care. Our goal is to support recovery from psychological injury, improve wellbeing and help individuals move forward with confidence and stability.
