PSYCHOSOCIAL RECOVERY COACHING

    You may have heard of a new NDIS support called “Psychosocial Recovery Coaches”, but might be unsure what it means? Sage explains in more detail what this new support is, and how it can help you.

    What is Psychosocial Recovery Coaching?

    Psychosocial Recovery Coaching is an NDIS funded support that may be included in an NDIS plan for Participants who have psychosocial support needs that effect their daily lives.

    Some of psychosocial disabilities may be;

    • Schizophrenia
    • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
    • Bi-polar disorder
    • Severe and persistent anxiety
    • Depression

    You must have this support included in your ‘Support Coordination’ budget within you NDIS plan in order to engage in this service. Your NDIA Planner or LAC can assist you to request this support in your NDIS plan.

    Our experience

    Our Psychosocial Recovery Coach has 2 years’ experience working within mental health, has accredited mental health first aid qualifications and receives direct and intensive mentoring with our Specialist Support Coordinator, who is also a qualified mental health counsellor.

    How will Psychosocial Recovery Coaching help in addition to Support Coordination?

    Psychosocial Recovery Coaching is a continuation of the Support Coordination role with a stronger focus on mental health, engagement within the community, family and mainstream mental health and funded supports.

    "Kelly has been exceptional for my son and I, from pre-plan, plan review to implementation. Kelly is prompt and efficient, she has extensive knowledge of the NDIS and their systems which allowed Kelly to get the maximum use out of my plan focusing on my goals. She was able to explain my plan and assist me to understand each area of my plan. I would highly recommend Kelly from Sage from pre-planning right the way through."
