PSYCHOSOCIAL RECOVERY COACHING - NDIS - BRISBANE
Psychosocial recovery coaching with Whole Hearts and Minds Services in Stafford, Brisbane, is an NDIS service that supports people with psychosocial disabilities, helping them to live more independently and better manage the challenges of daily living.
What Is A Psychosocial Recovery Coach?
If you are living with psychosocial disability , psychosocial recovery coaches help you recognise the issues you face and empower you to engage meaningfully in your own recovery. They typically work alongside your friends, family, and other caregivers to put together a comprehensive recovery plan to enable you to achieve a more normal life.
In many cases, psychosocial recovery coaches have lived experience of psychosocial disability. Therefore, you can choose coaches who fully understand your predicament, what you are going through, and know how to help.

How Psychosocial Recovery Coaching Is Different From Support Coordination
Psychosocial Recovery Coaching and Support Coordination are not the same. A Support Coordinator’s primary focus is on capacity-building – working with you to ensure that you get the most out of your NDIS plan. You do not need a psychosocial diagnosis for Support Coordination to be a part of your plan.
Psychosocial Recovery Coaching, however, is available to you if you have an official psychosocial disability diagnosis. It helps you manage the symptoms of underlying mental health conditions in a productive and wellness-promoting way.
Recovery coaches tend to be hands-on. They work directly with you using their knowledge of health services to ensure that you reach their goals. In most situations, they will recommend plans that diverge from conventional NDIS plans.
How To Find A Great Psychosocial Recovery Coach
For psychosocial recovery coaching to be successful, you need to work with a competent professional. Here’s how to know if you’ve found a great coach:
- They are recovery-oriented. The psychosocial recovery coaches should use every means at their disposal to help you to recover from your psychosocial disability, or to empower you to live meaningfully with your psychosocial disability.
- They have learned or lived experiences. The best coaches know exactly what you are going through and how challenging it can be.
- They recognise that every individual is different. Top coaches understand that there is no formula for mental health recovery. Instead, they help you plot your own path.
