As the year comes to a close, it’s the perfect time to reflect on your therapy journey and set yourself up for success in the year ahead. For NDIS participants, private-paying clients, and those with a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP), intensive therapy sessions can be a powerful way to make the most of your remaining time and resources.
Why Choose Intensive Therapy at Year-End?
- Maximize Your Funding and Budget
Many NDIS participants find they have unspent funds as their plan period ends. Intensive therapy blocks are an excellent way to use these funds effectively, ensuring you achieve your goals and avoid losing valuable resources.
Private-paying clients can also take advantage of this period, especially if work or school breaks allow for more flexibility. - Utilize Your Mental Health Care Plan Before It Resets
If you have a Mental Health Care Plan through Medicare, you may still have sessions available for the year. These sessions don’t roll over, so now is the time to book and use them before they expire. Intensive blocks can help you make the most of these subsidized sessions and support your mental health during what can be a stressful time of year. - Boost Progress Before the New Year
Intensive therapy provides a concentrated approach to skill development. Whether you’re working on communication, motor skills, emotional regulation, or daily living tasks, focused sessions can help you achieve noticeable improvements quickly. - Consistency Creates Change
Frequent sessions over a short timeframe help reinforce learning and build momentum. This is particularly helpful for clients who thrive on routine or need extra support to consolidate skills.
What Does Intensive Therapy Look Like?
Intensive therapy means scheduling multiple sessions within a condensed timeframe—such as daily or several times a week—rather than spreading them out over months. This approach is ideal for:
• Skill Building: Speech clarity, social communication, handwriting, sensory regulation.
• Transition Preparation: Starting school, moving to a new environment, or preparing for employment.
• Goal Acceleration: Meeting NDIS plan goals before review or achieving personal milestones.
• Mental Health Support: Addressing anxiety, stress, or emotional regulation before the holiday season.
Benefits for NDIS Participants
• Efficient Use of Funding: Avoid unspent funds and make every dollar count.
• Goal Achievement: Intensive blocks can help you meet or exceed your NDIS plan goals before your next review.
• Flexibility: Online delivery means you can access therapy from anywhere—even during holidays.
Benefits for Private Clients
• Convenient Scheduling: End-of-year breaks often allow more time for therapy.
• Focused Progress: Short-term intensives can deliver noticeable improvements quickly.
• Tailored Programs: We design sessions around your priorities and availability.
Benefits for Clients with Mental Health Care Plans
• Use Remaining Sessions: Medicare-subsidized sessions don’t roll over—book now to make the most of them.
• Extra Support During Stressful Times: The holiday season can be challenging; intensive therapy can help you manage stress and maintain emotional wellbeing.
