Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy
Lotus Therapy specializes in providing a safe and supportive therapy environment tailored to neurodivergent individuals. Our approach is rooted in the celebration of neurodiversity, drawing on our personal experiences, the latest research, and insights from the community.
We recognize the unique challenges that neurodivergent individuals face in a society that often prioritizes neurotypical traits. That's why our focus is on helping you find balance and harmony in a world that may not always understand your unique perspective.
Our therapy sessions are designed to be gentle, client-centered, and always evolving to meet your needs. We work as a wholistic and collaborative allied health team to ensure continuity of care. We offer a safe and confidential space where you can explore your neurodivergence and work towards your personal goals at your own pace.
Funding Options
NDIS
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a jointly governed and funded program by the Australian government and participating states and territories. It provides support to people with disabilities, their families, and carers. The NDIS funds reasonable and necessary support to help individuals reach their goals and increase their community participation.
Private Health Care
Private health insurance may provide allied health support for Occupational Therapy or Physiotherapy sessions, depending on your extras cover. Providers offer varying amounts and frequencies of rebates, so it's best to check with your health insurance provider to confirm if your policy covers these services.
Self Funded
If you require Occupational Therapy or Physiotherapy assessments and interventions, you have the option to fund them privately. We offer various options for ongoing support and would be happy to discuss the fees with you. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us by phone or email to explore your options.
