What is Psychosocial Recovery Coaching?

​

Psychosocial Recovery Coaching supports people with a mental health diagnosis to develop skills to manage the complexities and challenges of day-to-day life. Participants are assisted to articulate what a meaningful life means for them, their families and carers, to then be able to make decisions for themselves.  The Psychosocial Recovery Coach will help you find out about different services and supports including, mental health services and how these can help you.  They can also help you to better understand the NDIS system, and the supports that are available to you.  Through building strength, resilience and personalised strategies, participants can respond to situations in a positive and constructive way, a way that provides a sense of personal control and decision making for themselves.  This is aimed at increasing the participants independence, social participation, as well as economic participation.
