NDIS and Creative Arts Therapy

Creative Arts Therapy services provided by Seedpod Creative Arts Studio fall under Improved Daily Living – Therapy Supports. If you have funding available in your plan for Improved Daily Living, please feel free to get in touch and we can chat about how I can best support you.

As a registered Creative Arts Therapist (AThR) with a professional membership with ANZACATA, I am able to offer individual art therapy sessions to plan-managed and self-managed participants. Creative Arts Therapy supports individuals and groups to build capacity and independence for community participation and daily life. It can help develop personal agency and increase emotional regulation and psychosocial functioning.

I have a particular interest in working with NDIS participants who are living with Psychosocial disability - including CPTSD and Bipolar disorder.

What I offer:

  • Individual Creative Arts Therapy for adults

  • Support toward capacity-building goals: emotional regulation, daily routines/independence, community participation

  • Collaboration with your care team; progress notes, support letters, and reports for reviews

I adhere to the NDIS Code of Conduct and ANZACATA’s professional standards. As a Professional Member of the Australian, New Zealand and Asian Creative Arts Therapy Association (ANZACATA), I strive to uphold quality while working alongside NDIS participants toward their goals

Important note
In new NDIS plans, it Therapy Supports are available, NDIS has confirmed you will be able to access Art Therapy. Some Support Coordinators and Plan Managers may be unaware of this. Before commencing services it is important to confirm with them that you will be able to access Art Therapy services. If required I have a letter that can support you in this.

Access and outreach
Seedpod Creative Arts Studio is upstairs, so access may be limited for some mobility needs. If you feel drawn to my services, let’s talk. Outreach (me coming to you) may be possible within 20 minutes of Northcote
