Sunshine Disability NDIS Counselling Services

 We provide counselling to NDIS Planned Management clients on the Sunshine Coast. We provide face to face counselling at our office and NDIS funded outreach counselling to clients on the Sunshine Coast who may find it difficult to travel to us. Counsellors at our Counselling Clinic are registered with the Australian Counselling Association and the Australian Psychological Society. They are well-trained in dealing with clients with a variety of issues. 

 The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a programme that assists those who are permanently disabled. Individuals will have more choice and control over when, where, and how their funded supports are delivered under the NDIS. The type of assistance and financing provided is determined by the individual’s needs. On the NDIS website, you may learn more about which therapeutic supports are covered. 

 Plan Management is one of three ways you may have your support funding managed.

1. Self-managed: The NDIS will pay you or your nominee directly for the agreed supports.
2. NDIA-managed: The NDIS will pay your support provider directly for the agreed supports.
3. Plan-managed: The NDIS will pay your Plan Manager directly for these supports and the Plan Manager will pay the provider

When you are Plan Managed, there is no longer a restriction on only using National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) Registered Providers. This allows you to direct your own care and support arrangements based on your plan’s objectives.
