NDIS provider offering psychology support for self-managed and plan-managed participants. Secure telehealth sessions can support your NDIS goals, daily functioning, and access needs.
NDIS psychology across Australia
Life Psychology Australia provides NDIS psychology services to participants throughout Australia via secure telehealth. We understand that transport, access, sensory needs, and energy can make in-person appointments difficult.
Our telehealth-first model means you can access quality NDIS psychology support from anywhere in Australia — no need to arrange transport or navigate accessibility barriers. Whether you're in a capital city, a regional town, or somewhere remote, you can connect with us via secure video from the comfort of your own home.
We understand that accessing services can be challenging for many NDIS participants. Telehealth can remove some practical barriers while still allowing focused, evidence-informed psychological support.

We work with self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants.

Plan-Managed:Your plan manager handles payments. We invoice them directly, so you don't need to manage the paperwork.
Note:NDIA-managed (agency-managed) funding can't be used with us, because we are an unregistered NDIS provider and NDIA-managed funding can only be spent with registered providers.
