At Hi Five Community Services, we understand that living with a psychosocial disability can bring unique challenges. That’s where Psychosocial Recovery Coaches come in. Introduced under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), these professionals provide tailored support to individuals with mental health concerns, helping them navigate their recovery journey with confidence and structure.
What Are Psychosocial Recovery Coaches?
Psychosocial Recovery Coaches are specially trained
professionals who support people with psychosocial disabilities. Their role
goes beyond traditional support work by offering a recovery-oriented approach
focused on individual strengths, personal goals, and mental wellbeing.
A key part of their work is developing strong relationships
with participants, understanding their needs, and helping them build the skills
required to manage daily life. They work closely with families, carers, mental
health services, and other supports to ensure a holistic, coordinated approach.
The Role of NDIS Psychosocial Recovery Coaches
Under the NDIS, Psychosocial Recovery Coaches assist
participants with the following:
- Developing
and implementing recovery plans
- Strengthening
decision-making abilities
- Building
capacity and confidence
- Coordinating
mental health supports
- Navigating
the NDIS system and advocating for services
NDIS Recovery Coaches bring lived or learned experience in
mental health and combine this with coaching principles to empower
participants. This helps to create a safe space for goal setting,
problem-solving, and emotional growth.
