NDIS Support for Psychosocial Disabilities in Perth
Living with a mental health condition can significantly affect your ability to carry out daily tasks, connect with your community, and live independently. The NDIS recognises this — and funds practical support for people with a psychosocial disability so they can work toward their recovery goals and live life on their terms.
Help Alliance is a free matching service, not a provider. Tell us what you need, such as help with daily routines, getting out into the community or support coordination, and we send your request to NDIS providers who cover your suburb. Providers confirm they can start before they accept, up to three can accept, and you choose who to go with. You can also use it to find respite (STA), SIL and SDA providers.

What NDIS Psychosocial Support Can Include
Daily Routine Support
Consistent support with personal care, meal preparation, household tasks, and maintaining a stable daily routine — the foundation of mental health stability and independent living.
Community Participation
Supported community access, social activities, and group programs to reduce isolation, build connections, and help participants engage meaningfully in their local community.
Recovery-Oriented Support
Working alongside participants, their families, and mental health clinicians to provide support that aligns with recovery goals — not just crisis management.
What to Look For in a Psychosocial Support Provider
Trauma-informed and stigma-free
Workers should treat the person with dignity and without judgement. Ask what training they have in trauma-informed, recovery-oriented practice.
Focused on your goals
Support should work towards the goals you care about, whether that's a steady daily routine, reconnecting with family, returning to work or simply leaving the house more often.
The same worker where possible
Trust takes time to build. Ask how the provider keeps the same worker and how they handle changes to the roster.
Works alongside your clinical team
NDIS support sits alongside care from your GP, psychiatrist or community mental health team, not in place of it. Ask how the provider will keep in touch with them, with your permission.
