If you experienced complex injuries related to a motor vehicle accident (MVA), you know that it often helps to slow down and give yourself several opportunities to learn new skills. That’s what this group is about. People with lived accident experience gather to share and learn together.

Why should I join?

To explore safe ways to connect with myself and others around shared MVA experiences and recovery strategies

This therapy group helps accident survivors, like yourself, better understand their bodies and minds. It offers gentle restorative activities for you to try in a safe context with others who are also on a complex recovery journey.

You choose your level of participation for each activity, and which sessions to attend.

What will we be doing?

Each session offers gentle yoga, mindfulness meditation, skills refreshers, and sharing

This group treats you as a whole person. It is designed to help MVA survivors, like yourself, manage as best as possible at home, work or school, and in the community.

Interventions include those of social work, psychotherapy and occupational therapy. You and your peers get to discuss these and related recovery strategies with each other and the facilitators.

When and where do we meet?

This group meets every other Tuesday at 1-2:30pm, at the Midtown clinic

Few people understand what it's been like for me since the accident. I'd like to know I'm not alone.
