NDIS Psychologist – National Disability Insurance Scheme
We provide therapy supports funded under the support area Improved Daily Living. Support can be provided for the goals that form part of each participant’s NDIS plan. Participants may need support with social skills, emotional regulation, self esteem and anxiety. My Psychologist can attend school meetings to discuss curriculum and learning support. The fee charged is $244.22 which is the fee set by NDIS.
My Psychologist can assess for Autism Spectrum Disorder which could allow access to funding under NDIS.
What is the NDIS?
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) was set up as a new way of providing individualised support for eligible people with permanent and significant disability, their families and carers. NDIS is the insurance that gives all Australian’s peace of mind. As we all know, disability could affect anyone and having the right support makes a big difference.
What does the NDIS do?
NDIS understands that everyone’s needs, preferences and aspirations are different. The NDIS provides to eligible people a flexible, whole-of-life approach to the support needed to pursue their goals and aspirations and help them participate in daily life.
- NDIS provides information and referrals, such as links to Psychology services and community activities, individualised plans and where necessary, supports over a lifetime.
- They raise community awareness and encourage greater inclusion.
- They support service providers to build skill and capacity, and be part of the scheme.
- Over time, they will develop new and better ways of providing support, by improving on what works well and seeking improvement from the lived experience of people with disability.
