Hi, I’m Reed Clark. For over 15 years, I’ve been helping guys overcome workplace psychological injuries. Yes, I know work stress is real and can harm your life. We’re going to help you overcome it together and get you back to work, or back to the life you want.
What Is a Workplace Psychological Injury?
People think workplace injuries are just broken bones or cut fingers. But your mind can get injured at work, too. And honestly, sometimes those mental injuries take longer to heal than the physical ones. Here’s what I see guys dealing with all the time:
- Workplace accidents that left you shaken up
- Seeing someone else get seriously hurt at work
- Constant work pressure that’s pushed you over the edge
- Being threatened or attacked while doing your job
- Discrimination that’s worn you down over time
- Shift work that’s messing up your sleep and mood
The list goes on.
Do You Need Help from a WorkCover Psychologist Based in Brisbane?
Sometimes, you don’t even know work has messed with your head until things get really bad. You might notice a few things that seem off:
Going to work feels like torture now. Just thinking about walking through those doors makes your stomach turn. You’re lying in bed at 2 am, thinking about whatever went down at work or dreading the next day. Or maybe you find yourself getting angry at your kids for no good reason.
Does any of this sound familiar? If it does, then you should probably have a chat with a WorkCover Psychologist in Brisbane or someone who has workplace mental health issues.
How I Help Men with Workplace Psychological Injuries
Every guy I work with has a different story. Some witnessed something traumatic. Others dealt with months or years of workplace stress that finally pushed them past their limit. A few got physically injured, and now they’re dealing with depression or PTSD on top of everything else.
What we do is listen to your specific situation first. Then we figure out what’s going to help you the most. Sometimes that’s trauma therapy. Other times it’s stress management techniques or help dealing with anxiety and depression. Sometimes it is about building confidence and communication skills to resolve an issue. Common Issues Our WorkCover Psychologist in Brisbane Address:
- Post-traumatic stress from workplace incidents
- Anxiety about returning to work
- Depression from workplace bullying
- Sleep problems after shift work injuries
- Panic attacks related to work situations
- Anger management after workplace conflicts
- Adjustment issues with new limitations
The Truth About Getting Back to Work
Look, some guys ask me if they’ll ever be able to go back to their old job. Honestly? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. But what I can tell you is this – with the right help, you can get back to living a normal life. We will work on getting you to a point where you feel capable of making a decision about your work future.
Some blokes go back to the same workplace with new coping strategies. Others decide they need a career change. A few realise they’re ready for retirement.

FAQs
Will WorkCover actually pay for psychology sessions?
With a GP referral, WorkCover will pay for sessions while your claim is being determined. If your claim gets approved, then sessions are likely to continue to be covered. If your claim is not accepted, then any further sessions will be at your cost. A GP referral with a mental health care plan can help reduce those costs if needed. But it completely depends on your specific situation and your claim.
How long does WorkCover psychology treatment take?
What if my WorkCover claim gets rejected?
You can look at other options like private health insurance, GP referral and mental health care plan or private payment.
