If you are an NDIS participant, family member, carer, or support coordinator looking for psychology support in Adelaide, Neurospa Psychology may be able to help where psychological therapy aligns with the participant’s goals, needs, and funding arrangements. Our practice is based in Hilton, Adelaide, and provides psychology services designed to support everyday functioning, emotional regulation, skill development, relationships, routines, and participation in daily life.
NDIS therapeutic supports are intended to help participants improve functional abilities, develop skills, and increase independence in daily life.[1] For that reason, NDIS psychology support is different from making a general promise that every mental health concern or treatment goal will be covered by a participant’s plan. Before booking, we recommend checking the participant’s current plan, funding management type, and service-agreement requirements with their plan manager, support coordinator, or relevant NDIS contact.
Book online through Halaxy, call 08 5117 3064, or email hello@neurospa.com.au if you would like to discuss whether Neurospa may be a suitable fit.
How NDIS psychology support may help
Psychology support for NDIS participants is often focused on practical functional goals. Depending on the participant’s needs and clinical suitability, sessions may support areas such as emotional regulation, coping strategies, social communication, confidence, behaviour patterns, daily routines, transitions, relationship skills, and participation at home, school, work, or in the community.
Neurospa’s role is to provide psychology support within the scope of the clinician’s professional responsibilities and the participant’s goals. Where appropriate, this may include structured therapy sessions, practical strategies, progress notes, and reporting that helps describe functional impact or progress toward goals. Official NDIS provider guidance notes that allied health providers may provide evidence, assessments and reports that help inform NDIS access and funding decisions, including information about functional impact.[1]
| Support area | Examples of goals that may be discussed |
|---|---|
| Emotional regulation | Building strategies to notice, understand and manage emotional responses. |
| Daily routines | Supporting planning, transitions, organisation and day-to-day participation. |
| Social and communication skills | Working on confidence, boundaries, relationships and communication strategies. |
| Functional capacity | Describing how psychological factors affect daily functioning where clinically appropriate. |
| Progress reporting | Providing progress information or reports when clinically appropriate and agreed in advance. |
Who this page is for
This service may be relevant for NDIS participants who are seeking psychology support connected to their disability-related functional goals. It may also be useful for parents, carers, nominees, support coordinators, recovery coaches, and plan managers who are helping a participant find a suitable psychologist in Adelaide.
Because every plan is different, the page should not be used as a substitute for funding advice. Neurospa can discuss the clinical fit of the service, but the participant or their representative should confirm whether psychology can be claimed under the participant’s current plan and funding arrangement.
Funding and service agreements
Neurospa Psychology can discuss appointments for self-managed or plan-managed NDIS participants where psychology support is consistent with the participant’s NDIS plan and goals. Neurospa is not an NDIS-registered provider, so NDIA-managed participants will need to explore other options. If you are unsure whether your funding can be used for psychology sessions, please speak with your plan manager or support coordinator before booking.
A service agreement may be required before sessions begin. This helps clarify the participant’s goals, appointment arrangements, fees, cancellation requirements, reporting expectations, and payment process. If reports or progress updates are needed for a plan reassessment or support-coordination purpose, please raise this before booking so the scope, timing and fee can be confirmed.
What to bring or prepare
Before the first appointment, it is helpful to have the participant’s current NDIS plan, relevant goals, support-coordinator or plan-manager contact details, any existing psychology or allied-health reports, and a short summary of what support is being requested. If the participant has communication preferences, sensory needs, access needs, or appointment-support requirements, please tell Neurospa before the appointment so these can be considered.
| Helpful information | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Current NDIS goals | Helps align psychology support with the participant’s plan and priorities. |
| Funding-management type | Helps clarify whether the participant is self-managed, plan-managed, or NDIA-managed. |
| Existing reports | Helps the psychologist understand prior assessments, recommendations and functional impacts. |
| Support contacts | Helps coordinate practical requirements where the participant consents. |
| Access needs | Helps the practice prepare for communication, sensory or mobility considerations. |

Frequently asked questions
Can I use my NDIS plan for psychology at Neurospa?
You may be able to use NDIS funding for psychology support if it is consistent with your plan, goals, and funding arrangements. Neurospa cannot guarantee that a session or report will be funded, so participants should confirm with their plan manager, support coordinator, or relevant NDIS contact before booking.
Is Neurospa an NDIS-registered provider?
Neurospa Psychology is not an NDIS-registered provider. The practice may be suitable for self-managed or plan-managed participants only. NDIA-managed participants will need to explore other options.
Can Neurospa provide reports for NDIS reviews or plan reassessments?
Where clinically appropriate and agreed in advance, Neurospa can provide NDIS progress reports, functional-impact letters, and plan-reassessment reports. Fees for reports are based on the NDIS schedule, and the practice aims for quick turnaround times. NDIS guidance notes that allied health providers may write plan reassessment reports that explain the therapeutic approach and include evidence of outcomes and progress.[1]
Do I need a referral?
A referral may not always be required for private psychology appointments, but the participant’s funding arrangements, service agreement and clinical needs should be confirmed before booking. If another professional, support coordinator, or plan manager is involved, please provide their details with the participant’s consent.
Can a support coordinator contact Neurospa on behalf of a participant?
Yes, a support coordinator can make an enquiry, but Neurospa will need appropriate participant consent before discussing personal or clinical information. The enquiry should include the participant’s goals, funding-management type, and the reason psychology support is being requested.
