Therapeutic Supports
Therapeutic supports can be life-changing for people with disabilities. They make everyday activities more manageable, build confidence, and create opportunities for greater independence. A person who once struggled with basic tasks can learn skills to complete them more easily. Someone with mobility challenges can gain strength and safety to move around at home and in the community. A participant with communication difficulties can develop the ability to express themselves clearly and connect with others. These improvements reduce reliance on others, increase independence, and lead to stronger participation in family, work, and community life. Small gains in therapy grow into long-term changes that bring lasting confidence and quality of life.
Therapeutic supports in NDIS plan are usually funded under the Capacity Building budget. They are grouped into three key funding categories:
- Improved Daily Living
This category supports therapies that make everyday tasks easier and help you live more independently. For example, an occupational therapist can teach strategies for dressing, cooking, or managing personal care. Speech therapy can also improve communication so you can express yourself clearly at school, work, or in the community.
- Improved Health and Wellbeing
This area focuses on therapies that improve your overall health and fitness in ways directly related to your disability. A dietitian might design a meal plan to support healthy weight or manage special dietary needs, while an exercise physiologist can create a safe program to build mobility, strength, and balance. These therapies help you stay active and healthy long-term.
- Improved Relationships
This funding builds social and emotional skills to strengthen connections with others. Behaviour support can help develop positive strategies to manage daily challenges, while social skills programs can support children with developmental delay to interact confidently with peers. People with psychosocial disability can also benefit from therapies that promotes resilience and stronger community participation.
