Being involved in a motor vehicle whether as a driver, passenger, or pedestrian can be a traumatic experience for an individual and can result in fear and avoidance. The assessment consists of an initial assessment with an Occupational Therapist or Psychologist who interviews the client to determine individual driver/passenger/pedestrian related concerns and the parameters of the client’s vehicular related driver anxiety and fear.
