What is NDIS Counselling and how can it help someone with a disability?

Counselling is a therapeutic support service that helps NDIS participants develop techniques and skills to strengthen mental health, support emotional regulation skills and achieve individualised goals. It is a capacity-building service designed to support and develop your inner self, enabling you to achieve your goals and gain greater autonomy.

 

Counselling offers a safe, non-judgmental space to discuss various aspects of your life, allowing you to work through challenges and issues with a trained professional.

 

While there are many supports available through your NDIS plan, a counsellor offers additional guidance and helps you develop manageable strategies for areas where you might feel overwhelmed or face difficulties.

 

Counsellors can help with:

 

  • Guiding you through life transition goals.

  • Refining your social skills to understand different perspectives.

  • Supporting your time management and goal-setting skills.

  • Assisting you in your job-seeking journey.

  • Addressing planning, time management, and memory issues.
