NDIS Habit Coaching in Ballarat

Accelerate your outcomes with cost-effective habit coaching to practice routines and skills​ in between therapy sessions.

How Habit Coaching Delivers More

Habit Coaches are available exclusively to our NDIS participants in Ballarat who receive occupational therapy, speech pathology, physiotherapy, early childhood or positive behaviour support services.

Because the best way to deliver positive change is to engage a habit coach as part of your team to practice the new skills you’ve learnt between your therapy sessions that result in life changing habits.

How Can Habit Coaching Help You?

Habit coaching helps children, teenagers, and adults with disabilities in Ballarat practice new skills and habits between therapy sessions. Some of the outcomes they can help you achieve include:

  • Increasing independence as you build new habits and routines to do the things you want and need to do in everyday life
  • Staying on track with your therapy and accelerating progress towards your goals
  • Greater sense of achievement, wellbeing, and self-confidence.
  • Stretching your NDIS funding further with cost-effective support in between your therapy sessions
  • Faster access to allied health services that are in high demand across Australia.

We’re Ready to Get you Started

A habit coach works under the guidance of a qualified practitioner, so your first step to getting started with therapy is to meet with a disability practitioner in your home. They can get to know you, your family and other support team members to understand the outcomes you all want. If you’re already receiving services speak with your practitioner who can refer you to a habit coach.
