What is NDIS Psychology?

NDIS Psychology is a specialised service that provides assessment, therapy, and support to help participants manage the psychological aspects of their disability. This includes addressing mental health conditions, emotional regulation, challenging behaviours, social skills, and trauma. Our psychologists use evidence-based therapies to build resilience, improve daily functioning, and enhance overall quality of life, aligning all interventions with your personal NDIS goals.

What is the difference between an NDIS Psychologist and a Clinical Psychologist?

Both are qualified to provide therapy under the NDIS. A Psychologist has a minimum 6 years of training (4-year degree + 2-year internship or Masters). A Clinical Psychologist has an additional 2-year specialised Masters in Clinical Psychology, focusing on severe mental health conditions. Both are highly capable, and the best choice depends on the participant's specific needs and the psychologist's experience.




How do I know if I am eligible for NDIS Psychology?

To access NDIS-funded Psychology, you must be an approved NDIS participant. Your plan needs to include funding for this service, which is typically found under Capacity Building - Improved Daily Living Skills. If you have this funding, you can use it to book our services. We can also assist with reports to request this funding for your next plan.

Can a psychologist prescribe medication?

No, psychologists in Australia cannot prescribe medication. That is the role of a psychiatrist (a medical doctor specialising in mental health) or a GP. Psychologists provide therapy and behavioural interventions. We often work collaboratively with prescribers to ensure holistic care.





What is Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) and do I need a plan?

PBS is a evidence-based framework for understanding the reasons behind challenging behaviours (e.g., communication, escape, sensory needs) and developing proactive strategies to teach new skills and improve quality of life. A dedicated PBS Practitioner (often a psychologist) develops a formal PBS Plan, which may require specific funding in your NDIS plan.





Do you provide in-home sessions?

Yes, we offer in-home and community-access sessions. This is particularly beneficial for participants who find clinic settings overwhelming, or for addressing behaviours and building skills in the specific environment where they occur (e.g., at home or in the community).






How do you work with participants who have communication difficulties or are non-verbal?

Our psychologists are skilled in using alternative communication methods, observing behaviour, and working with support workers and families to understand needs. We use tools like visual supports, AAC devices, and focus on non-verbal cues and behavioural expressions.

How do I book an appointment?

You can book easily by clicking the "Book Now" button on this page or calling our clinic directly. Please have your NDIS number ready. We will discuss your needs, confirm your NDIS funding details, and match you with a psychologist who specialises in your area of need.






 Is everything I discuss with the psychologist confidential?

Yes, client confidentiality is a fundamental ethical principle. What you discuss is private and will not be shared without your consent. The only exceptions are if there is an immediate risk of harm to yourself or someone else, or if required by law. This will be explained in your first session.

In their words

What Families Have to Say

"My support worker, Sarah, has been an absolute lifesaver. She helps with my daily routine, from meal prep to getting to appointments on time, and even takes me on short walks to the park. Sarah is patient and really listens to what I need. I’m so grateful for the support she provides – I feel more confident knowing she’s there."
Emily T, Brunswick, Melbourne
"We hired a gardener from Beyond Health Services, and Jason has completely transformed our backyard. He removed the weeds, trimmed the hedges, and even installed a vegetable garden that my wife and I have been enjoying. The space looks so much better, and we couldn’t be happier with his attention to detail."
Jason M, St Albans, Melbourne
"The cleaning service from Beyond continues to impress us. Every corner of our home gets attention – they even scrubbed out stains from the carpets that we thought would never come out. I always look forward to coming home to a fresh, spotless house after their visit. Their reliability is what sets them apart."
Sophia R, Sunshine West, Melbourne
"I’m so grateful for Liam, the driver who takes my father to his medical appointments. Liam is always on time, helps my dad in and out of the car, and even waits with him at the doctor’s office. It’s reassuring to know my dad is in such capable hands when I can’t be there myself."
Adam G, Windsor, Melbourne
"These guys sent over a fantastic speech therapist to help my son with his communication challenges. Kate was incredibly patient, using fun and interactive techniques to get him to open up. In just a few weeks, we’ve seen a noticeable improvement in his speech, and he’s more confident in expressing himself. We’re so thankful for Kate’s expertise and warmth."
Sarah W, Werribee, Melbourne
