NDIS SUPPORT
Since 2016, we've been instrumental in supporting Self-Managed and Plan-Managed NDIS participants. We utilise a range of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, many of which are room-based. However, we encourage our clients to experience the beautiful calming effect of horses, and being in nature is part of the therapy process too.
Our sessions are not just another service but a unique and holistic approach that has proven invaluable in helping children and adults manage life's challenges and achieve NDIS goals.
Our empathetic and caring staff values, respects, and embraces each individual’s diversity and way of experiencing the world. We warmly welcome people just as they are.
Participants are always empowered to have choice and control in our work together. Every session is meticulously tailored to each NDIS participant’s goals and preferences.
Some of our focus areas can include:
-
Self-regulation
-
Awareness of self and others
-
Communication
-
Confidence building
-
Resilience strengthening
-
Responsibility development
-
Trust enhancement
-
Relationship, interpersonal and social skills
-
Boundary consciousness
-
Solution resolution
-
Independent living skills
-
Psychosocial functioning
Our services are designed to be safe and accessible for people of ‘all abilities’. Our well-established indoor and ‘all-weather outdoor facilities’ are in a beautiful natural bushland setting.
No prior horse experience is necessary. Participants may be gently invited to observe, meet or share space with one or more of our horses. Relating personal experiences to horse behaviour can establish connections and deep bonds. Some participants may also explore practical experiences, such as horse care, mounted experiences, or supervised lead work, that instil purpose, trust, and resilience.
Translating these skills and experiences to daily life is a valuable aspect that allows participants to apply what they learn to various real-world situations.
