Disability Psychological Support

NDIS Disability Support Services

One of the least recognised aspects of disability is the psychological impact. For those who acquire a disability, it's often difficult to adjust to life when the way you do things and the way you feel about yourself has changed. Even for those who have lived with disability since birth, each new phase of life brings new challenges. The lives of your family members may also be affected in different ways.

One in five Australians reports having a disability

Psychologists work with people with disability and can offer specialised assessment, intervention, skills training, behaviour support, communication techniques, and environmental strategies

There is strong evidence supporting the benefits of psychological interventions in autism and intellectual disability, the two most prominent diagnoses amongst NDIS participants
