Our Psychology service offers a broad variety of benefits for NDIS participants, including an improved ability for you to relate to family and friends, connect with your local community and enrich your quality of life.
Like other allied health disciplines, the role of a NDIS psychology clinician is to help you reach your goals. Our psychology clinicians will complete a disability focused assessment of psychology support needs to identify the cognitive, behavioural and emotional barriers and skill-deficits preventing you from achieving your NDIS goals.
Our psychology clinicians will then generate an individualised, evidence-based intervention plan to address these.
