ICBC Counselling Services Now Available: Direct Billing with Danielle Bergevin, RSW at Capria Care Collective

Navigating the aftermath of a car accident can be overwhelming, especially when dealing with physical and emotional trauma. At Capria Care Collective, we understand that getting the right support is crucial for your recovery. That’s why we're pleased to let you know that Danielle Bergevin, our Registered Social Worker, is now able to direct bill to ICBC for counselling services.

Understanding the ICBC Process

If you’ve been involved in a motor vehicle accident in British Columbia, ICBC offers coverage for counselling services as part of their accident benefits. This means you don’t have to worry about upfront payments for your sessions. We can handle the direct billing process, allowing you to focus on your recovery.

When you start working with Danielle, the first step is to ensure your claim is active with ICBC. Once you have provided us with your claim number and adjustor’s name and your claim is confirmed, we can help you navigate the next steps, including setting up an initial appointment. With Danielle, you’ll discuss your experience, challenges, and how counselling can support your healing journey. This process is seamless and designed to reduce the stress often associated with insurance claims. Initially, you will be granted 12 sessions to be used within the first 12 weeks from the date of the Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA). After the initial 12 sessions, or 12 weeks your case will be reevaluated by Danielle and she can request additional sessions to be covered under your ICBC claim.

What to Expect from Your Sessions

Counselling with Danielle is a collaborative process. During your sessions, she will work with you to identify and address the emotional and psychological impacts of your accident. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, stress, trauma, or depression, Danielle is here to help you regain a sense of control and well-being.

Danielle's approach to counselling is client-centered, meaning your needs and goals are the priority. She uses evidence-based techniques, including Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to support your recovery. You’ll explore practical strategies to manage your symptoms and develop coping mechanisms tailored to your unique situation.

The Benefits of Direct Billing

Direct billing to ICBC offers several advantages, making it easier for you to access the care you need without the financial burden. With Danielle handling the billing process, you don’t need to pay out of pocket for the full cost of your sessions. This ensures that your focus remains on healing and recovery, rather than on building financial concerns.

Additionally, direct billing simplifies the administrative side of your recovery. By eliminating the need to file claims or wait for reimbursements, you save time and avoid the hassle of dealing with paperwork. Capria’s experience with ICBC claims means you can trust that the process will be handled efficiently and correctly.

How Counselling Can Support Your Recovery

After an accident, the road to recovery isn’t just physical; it’s emotional and psychological as well. You might find yourself struggling with feelings of anxiety, fear, or even anger. These emotions are common and understandable, but they don’t have to define your recovery journey. Counselling can provide you with the tools and support needed to overcome these challenges.

At Capria Care Collective, Danielle offers a safe and supportive space where you can express your concerns and work through the emotional aftermath of your accident. You’ll have the opportunity to talk about your experiences, set goals for your recovery, and develop strategies to move forward.
