Psychosocial Recovery Coaching

Living with a mental health condition can affect many parts of life, from keeping routines on track to staying connected with others or feeling confident making everyday decisions. For some people, it becomes difficult to manage everything alone, and for families it can be challenging to know how best to offer support without feeling overwhelmed. Psychosocial Recovery Coaching provides a steady and understanding guide during these times. 

Designed to help people make sense of the support available to them, you’ll build a clearer direction for the future and feel more capable in managing daily life. Whether you are searching for support for yourself or for someone you care about, psychosocial coaching creates the foundations for better wellbeing, greater independence and a stronger sense of control.

What is a Psychosocial Recovery Coach?

A Psychosocial Recovery Coach is a trained professional who supports people with psychosocial disability to build independence, develop resilience and work towards personal goals. This service is funded through the NDIS and is designed to help people navigate daily life, strengthen coping skills and improve their overall wellbeing.

Your coach works with you to understand what you want life to look like, what challenges you are facing and what supports will help you move forward. They can assist with coordinating services, building confidence in self advocacy, improving daily routines and connecting you with community resources.

Who We Help

Psychosocial Recovery Coaching is for people living with the ongoing effects of mental health conditions who want support that feels steady, practical and genuinely understanding. Ideal for individuals who are working towards greater independence, coaching will help the participant rebuild their confidence and learn how to manage daily challenges in a way that feels less overwhelming. It can also be valuable for people who have experienced periods of hospital care or major changes in their mental health and want consistent support to reestablish routines and reconnect with their goals. 

Families and carers benefit as well, as a recovery coach provides direction, clarity and reliable communication that eases pressure while ensuring their loved one receives the right guidance from someone experienced in psychosocial support.

Our Approach to Psychosocial Recovery Coaching

At Harmony House, the foundation of our work is connection. We take time to understand each person’s story, strengths and challenges so we can create a support plan that feels personal and achievable. Our coaches focus on building trust first and goal setting second, because we know meaningful recovery only happens when someone feels safe, respected and heard.

We work collaboratively with you, your support, and any health professionals involved in your care. We also recognise that recovery does not happen in isolation, which is why we integrate this service with our broader supports, including in home and community access care. 

Every step in our process is designed to strengthen your confidence, encourage independence and build lasting skills. With consistent check ins, tailored guidance and a warm, supportive presence, we help you move towards the life you want to live.

FAQs

A psychosocial disability refers to the challenges a person experiences as a result of a long term mental health condition. These challenges can affect daily routines, relationships, confidence, communication and a person’s ability to take part in their community. Not everyone with a mental health condition will experience a psychosocial disability, but for those who do, the impact can feel significant and often unpredictable.

Recovery coach funding is available to NDIS participants who are living with a psychosocial disability and would benefit from structured guidance, goal setting and support to build independence. 

This funding is usually included under Capacity Building support in an NDIS plan. People may receive it if they need help navigating daily challenges, understanding service options, strengthening their decision making or reconnecting with their community.

While both roles aim to help people make the most of their NDIS plan, Psychosocial Recovery Coaching offers a deeper, more personalised level of support specifically for people with psychosocial disability.

Support coordinators focus on connecting participants with services and helping them understand their plan. Recovery coaches do this as well, but they also work more closely on building confidence, daily skills, emotional resilience and long term recovery strategies. Their work is grounded in understanding the lived experience of mental health challenges and providing a steady, supportive relationship. Generally speaking, it is a more holistic approach that supports both the practical and personal sides of recovery.
