About the service
About Therapy Services (OT, Speech, Physio, Psychology) under the NDIS
Therapeutic supports bring allied health expertise — occupational therapy, speech pathology, physiotherapy, psychology, dietetics, and more — to help participants build function, independence, and wellbeing. Therapy helps people develop skills, manage the impact of their disability, use equipment effectively, and take part more fully in daily life, work, and the community, with many participants seeing more than one discipline.
Effective therapy is practical and outcome-driven, setting clear functional goals — preparing a meal, communicating a need, moving safely around the home — and building the person's capacity, often alongside their family and support workers. It is funded under capacity-building supports for therapy that is reasonable and necessary and relates to your disability and goals. When choosing a therapist, look for appropriate qualifications and registration, experience with your disability and goals, a practical, goal-focused approach, the ability to see you in settings that matter, and coordination with your other supports.
