Navigating the complexities of mental health can be challenging, especially when you or a loved one also require assistance with day-to-day living. If you’re in Melbourne, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) can help provide personalised support services tailored to your needs. At Assist Support Services, we understand the unique experiences of individuals living with mental health conditions, and we’re here to offer the support and guidance you need to thrive.
What is NDIS Support for Mental Health?
The NDIS is designed to help Australians living with permanent and significant disabilities, including psychosocial disabilities caused by mental health conditions. If you have a mental health diagnosis and it affects your daily life, you may be eligible for NDIS funding. The program allows you to access services that can support your recovery and improve your quality of life, whether you need assistance with social participation, managing your household, or developing your skills.
Our team at Assist Support Services in Melbourne works with participants to create personalised NDIS plans that focus on their individual goals and needs. We offer Support Assistance across a range of areas, from help with daily tasks to connecting you with community resources, ensuring that your journey to recovery is supported every step of the way.
Lived Experience in Mental Health Support
At Assist Support Services, we know that lived experience plays a vital role in understanding mental health challenges. Our team includes professionals who have firsthand experience with mental health conditions, allowing them to provide empathetic and practical support to our clients. We believe that understanding the emotional and practical challenges of mental health recovery is key to providing high-quality, tailored services that make a real difference in your life.

Whether you’re looking for help with your day-to-day life or you want to focus on recovery and skill-building, we’ll work with you to create a plan that meets your specific requirements. Our personalised support services include:
- Daily living support: Assistance with personal care, household management, and transportation.
