Four ways to refer
Injured People & Private Clients
You have been in an accident, or driving has become difficult, and you want to speak to someone directly. No referral needed.
CTP & WorkCover Insurers
Assessment, treatment and reporting for Compulsory Third Party and workers compensation claims, with clear functional outcomes.
Case Managers & Rehabilitation Consultants
A driver rehabilitation provider that works within your existing plan, reports on time and keeps you informed.
GPs & Allied Health Referrers
For patients whose recovery has stalled around driving, anxiety or post-accident adjustment. Psychological services are also available on their own.
What we are
A specialised rehabilitation service
This matters when you are deciding where to send someone. A driving school teaches a person to operate a vehicle and pass a test. We work with people who already hold a licence, or held one until something happened, and who now face physical, cognitive, psychological or functional barriers to driving safely.
Our team includes a registered psychologist, occupational therapists and rehabilitation driver trainers, who work together on one plan. You do not need to decide which discipline your client needs first. We assess them, identify the barrier and bring in the right people.
We have worked this way for over 15 years with clients whose driving has been affected by motor vehicle accidents, workplace injury, trauma, anxiety, PTSD, medical conditions and age-related change.
The pathway
How a referral progresses
- 1
Referral received
Send us the details by phone, email or the enquiry form. We acknowledge every referral and tell you if anything is still needed.
- 2
Intake and triage
We speak with the client, confirm the claim or funding context, and identify the most appropriate starting point: psychological, occupational therapy, or on-road.
- 3
Assessment
A formal assessment establishing baseline function and the specific barriers involved. You receive a written report with findings and recommendations.
- 4
Treatment and rehabilitation
A graded program of psychological support, exposure therapy and on-road rehabilitation, as required. We review progress throughout.

Reporting and discharge
Regular progress reports in the format you need, and a discharge summary recording the functional outcomes achieved.
