Motor Vehicle Collisions
Motor vehicle collisions are common, yet many people are unaware of the support they may be entitled to following an accident.
In Alberta, individuals involved in a collision—regardless of fault—may be eligible for psychological services under Section B accident benefits. These services are designed to support your emotional recovery, not just your physical healing.
Wilder Minds Psychology + Assessment Services provides Section B psychological assessments to help you access the care you need. Through a clear and supportive process, we work with you to document your needs and connect you with appropriate treatment options so you can move forward in your recovery.
Checklist
In the first 90 days you are entitled to benefits for different types of therapy, and you have ever right to receive these supports. After the 90 days, it is possible that you qualify for Section B benefits which increase the total amount that is covered and support you for up to 2 years post MVA. If you want to learn more, please reach out.

Assessment + Therapy Services
At Wilder Minds Psychology, we offer referrals for psychotherapy for MVC clients to support in reducing symptoms such as intrusive thoughts, images and memories, hypervigilance when driving, avoidance of driving and the very real impacts that it has outside of the driving experience and in our day to day lives (loss of interest in activities, isolation from friends and family members, increased anxiety).
Your fees may be covered by insurance.
When you reach out, make sure you have your insurance information and your claim number, we will take care of the rest.
