What is a Psychosocial Recovery Coach?

​

A Psychosocial Recovery Coach (PRC) is an NDIS-funded support designed specifically for people living with psychosocial disability, usually the result of complex mental health conditions. As your Psychosocial Recovery Coach, I help you build skills, confidence, and independence, so you can live a more connected and meaningful life.

​

Think of recovery coaching as a bridge between therapy and everyday living. It’s about helping you turn your goals, needs, and supports into a real-life plan you can use, and my role is to walk beside you while you work toward those goals.

​

How Psychosocial Recovery Coaching Works

​

If you have psychosocial disability and an NDIS plan with Recovery Coaching funding,

I can work with you to:

​

• Understand your NDIS plan and make it work for you

• Coordinate with therapists, supports, and service providers

• Create a strengths-based recovery plan based on your goals

• Build independence, confidence, and emotional resilience

• Support you in navigating setbacks and celebrating wins

• Link you with community supports, housing, employment, or programs

• Check in regularly because consistency matters​

 

As a Psychosocial Recovery Coach, I provide mentoring, planning, and practical support, all while holding space for what you're going through. This is not case management. It’s collaborative, flexible, and built around you.

​

How is Recovery Coaching Different from Counselling?

Great question, while they complement each other, Psychosocial Recovery Coaching and Counselling are not the same.

As someone trained in both, I can help you figure out which is best for where you are at, and many clients choose to do both.

​

Why Work With Me as Your Recovery Coach?

​

I bring more than professional training, I bring lived experience. Living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), I know firsthand what it’s like to lose independence, navigate unpredictable symptoms, and redefine who you are through a diagnosis.

I have also worked through significant mental health challenges of my own and come through stronger, more self-aware, and grounded. This allows me to meet you where you’re at, with no judgment, no pressure, and no “fixing" it for you; we do it together—just real, honest support.

Clients tell me they feel seen, understood, and encouraged, even on the hard days.

​

How We Work Together

​

You can work with me as your Psychosocial Recovery Coach if:

​

• You have an NDIS plan with Psychosocial Recovery Coaching funding

• You are self-managed or plan-managed (I currently do not work with NDIA-managed plans)

• You live in South Australia, or are open to telehealth/phone-based support anywhere in Australia

 

Sessions are flexible; we can meet via phone, Zoom, or in-person (Seaton and surrounds), and I am always happy to collaborate with your support coordinator or existing team.

​

Not Sure if You Have PRC Funding?

​

You can check your plan under 'Capacity Building – Support Coordination – Psychosocial Recovery Coaching'. If you are still unsure, I am happy to help you look through your plan or speak with your support coordinator.
