NDIS Psychologist on the Gold Coast
Mind on Health is an NDIS provider delivering NDIS psychologist and counselling services under Capacity Building Supports. Our NDIS psychologists and provisional psychologists work under appropriate supervision, ensuring care is ethical, evidence-based, and compliant with NDIS expectations.
Located in Oxenford and Parkwood on the Gold Coast, our NDIS psychologists deliver services that focus on building your independence and skills to aid in the pursuit towards your short and long-term goals.
What Does an NDIS Psychologist Do?
An NDIS psychologist supports participants to build emotional resilience, manage mental health challenges, and develop practical strategies for everyday life. At Mind on Health, our psychologist NDIS services are delivered as part of NDIS-funded therapeutic supports that focus on long-term capacity building rather than crisis intervention.
Psychology support under the NDIS is goal-driven. Sessions with our NDIS psychologists are structured around what matters most to the participant, whether that involves managing anxiety, improving emotional regulation, strengthening relationships, or building confidence in daily activities. Therapy is designed to support functional outcomes that align with an individual’s NDIS plan.
