NDIS Plan Review Assistance, Support Coordination, Counselli

The health and disability systems can be hard to navigate and it can be hard to know where to start when it comes to putting together a support team to help us to meet our goals and that's where we can help.

With extensive experience of working in Mental Health and Disability, we can use our skills, knowledge, experience and contacts to help you achieve the best outcomes. 

We can help you to identify, negotiate with and engage a team of service providers, prepare for scheduled or unscheduled reviews and coordinate your health and disability support under a shared plan.

Areas of specialty include supporting people with psychosocial disabilities, supporting young people  and supporting people with disabilities to return home following hospital stays.

We offer:

 Level 2 Coordination of Supports and Level 3 Specialist Support Coordination in person in South East Queensland and Northern NSW, and remotely nationally.

 Feel better, move better, live better -

 Our Occupational Therapists can support you to develop confidence and abilities to achieve your goals big or small, from everyday activities to lifelong dreams. 

We know how important it is to have a skilled, motivated and passionate OT to support you to achieve your goals and take pride in the high level of dedication, training and experience in our team.

Whether you need a functional assessment for a plan review or an expert to help get you back to doing the things that you enjoy, we would connect you with the right team member to achieve your goals.

For more info, see our team member profiles. 

 It is essential that a person has a NDIS plan that accurately reflects their needs and yet often people are incorrectly funded, and the NDIA seems to not understand a person's individual support requirements.
 

We offer assistance to people who need to change their NDIS plan, or the plan of someone that they support, by providing a full reassessment preparation service.
 

Our service includes:
 

A supportive and comprehensive review of your circumstances, including review of all existing reports and assessments,
 

Our specialist Occupational Therapist, who has more than 15 years' experience, working with you to develop an accurate functional assessment that reflects your disability support related needs and,
 

The preparation of all change of circumstances paperwork, in partnership with a former NDIA senior delegate, for submission to the NDIA.
 

Support is also available to request reviews of plans that recently been built that do not match your needs.

Life comes with a number of challenges; some we take in our stride and others we really need to focus our attention on, which can be difficult for a number of reasons, in order to figure out how to deal with them.

As a counsellor, I help to create a space within which you are able to put attention into the challenges that are giving you trouble. These challenges may be taking your energy, keeping you awake at night or preventing you from moving forward with your life in the way that you would like to. 

We move at a pace that suits you, discussing what you want to and looking for solutions to problems that are important to you.

I started counselling in 2009 and have supported people with many different challenges. Some areas that I have specialised in include:

Managing Anxiety.

Tackling depression.

Adapting to change, including bereavement, change in relationship status and changes with health.

Managing work, life and relationship stress.

Addressing challenges with Alcohol and other Drugs.

Challanges relating to Adolescence.

Reducing distress attached to traumatic incidents.

As your Recovery Coach, I am here to support you to live your life the way that you want to and to find a way for you to achieve goals that currently may feel impossible to achieve on your own.

I work closely with a small group of people, so that I can know my clients and their situations very well and provide them with a very personal service, tailored to their needs. 

It may take time to get to the outcomes or destinations that you are seeking, but, by working in partnership together.

"I look forward to getting to know you and working with you". Dom
