NDIS Recovery Coaching

NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) recovery coaching is a type of support provided to people with a disability or mental health condition who are accessing the NDIS scheme. Recovery coaching aims to help individuals achieve their recovery goals and live their lives to the fullest.

NDIS recovery coaching is provided by a trained and certified recovery coach who works with the individual to identify their goals, strengths, and needs. The coach then helps the individual develop a recovery plan that includes strategies for managing their disability or mental health condition, as well as ways to improve their overall health and well-being.

How we help with Pyschosocial Disability Recovery Coaching?

SDS CARE can provide a valuable service for individuals with psychosocial disabilities by offering psychosocial recovery coaching. Psychosocial recovery coaches work closely with individuals, their families, carers, and other services to support them in taking control of their lives and managing the complex challenges of day-to-day living.

At SDS CARE, our recovery coaches aim to develop a recovery-enabling relationship with the individual, increase their awareness of choice and control, identify individual goals, and develop strategies to achieve them. They provide ongoing support and engagement, even in times of increased needs due to variations in individual mental illness.

Our recovery coaches also help individuals:

• Build capacity
• Increase recovery skills
• Improve resilience
• Improve decision making

They use their specific knowledge of mental health services to ensure individuals receive the best support to reach their goals.

It’s important to note that a support coordinator’s main focus is capacity building and working with an individual to get the most out of their NDIS plan. In contrast, a psychosocial recovery coach is specifically designed for individuals who have a primary diagnosis of psychosocial disability.

Individuals can choose to work with a recovery coach who has learned or lived experience of psychosocial disability. Generally, support coordination and recovery coaching will not be supported on the same NDIS plan.

At SDS CARE, we are dedicated to providing individuals with psychosocial disabilities the best possible support to help them achieve their goals and lead fulfilling lives.
