Types of programmes:

Therapy draws from various behavioural therapies and includes the following programmes:

Activate
Aimed at getting you engaged if you lack energy or motivation, procrastinate or avoid life.
Expose
Aimed at gradually exposing you to people, situations or triggers which causes you distress
Aware
Focused on self-awareness of your own emotions, thoughts and behaviour, or becoming more aware of others’ behaviour.
Effective
Ensure optimal effectiveness of a routine, your time and boundaries, how you organise yourself and how you deal with stressful situations.
Prevent
Ensure that you stay well and have improved insight into yourself, your health condition and the practical strategies you have to follow for overall wellness.

After assessment, vocational rehabilitation is planned in conjunction with the treating team, employer and other stakeholders. A return-to-work plan is customised for each employee and their job demands, with the timing and nature of the rehabilitation critical to its success. Often insurers use this as part of case management, which is the process of managing clinical and vocational rehabilitation interventions.

• Work preparation (getting you ‘work ready’)
includes various strategies for preparing for work – getting active again, engaging in routine activities and responsibilities, and getting used to typical work demands. This is generally performed whilst at home and will require your participation in treatment sessions and related home programmes
• Work rehabilitation (getting you ‘work fit)
may occur at home or in the workplace. This includes exposure to increasing levels of tasks and responsibilities, or working hours. Certain job tasks may be adapted, reduced or omitted as part of the process. Often the process includes a job trial, which means that you perform the work rehabilitation stage whilst on disability benefits from an insurer. This allows for greater flexibility in negotiating the return to work plan, reduces the pressure and allows a safety-net if you experience challenges.
• Vocational support (get that ‘work mojo’ back)
is provided after you have return to work in your own or adapted capacity to ensure that you are able to sustain your progress and resume your career trajectory. This could occur at the practice, your workplace or via telephone/email.
