What is a Psychosocial Recovery Coach? 

A Psychosocial Recovery Coach is a support, funded by the NDIS. As a coach, I aim to help people living with psychosocial disabilities live a full and contributing life in the community by combining the principles of recovery-orientated practice with coaching to assist people to build on their strengths and increase resilience. As a recovery coach, my service offerings are different from support coordination, coaching requires knowledge and skills in mental health and navigation within the mental health ecosystem.

Overview of what coaching involves:

• Co-designing, goal planning and implementing a recovery plan with participants

• Providing coaching and support to increase resilience, capacity and strength

• Boost engagement and participation within the community

• Assist with the coordination of NDIS supports

• Implement practical strategies to manage the challenges of day-to-day living

*Please note that Recovery Coaching is not therapy, therapy is a separate service which can be covered in your NDIS plan for Psychology and other related therapy services if required.
