Practical support for recovery, choice and everyday life.

Recovery-oriented coaching for people living with psychosocial disability who want practical support with mental health, resilience, confidence and goals that matter to them.

A human place to begin

Recovery is personal—and you remain the decision-maker.

Psychosocial Recovery Coaching works alongside you to identify strengths, make sense of services and turn goals into practical next steps.

It is a peer support and lived experience service. This can bring practical understanding to conversations about mental health, recovery and navigating the NDIS, while recognising that each person’s experience and priorities are different.

Support may include understanding and using your NDIS plan, preparing for meetings, connecting with suitable mental health and community services, building routines and strengthening confidence in everyday decisions.

Our approach recognises lived experience, dignity of risk and the importance of relationships, identity and community. It is collaborative rather than directive.

How support may help

Turning goals into manageable next steps.

Recovery Coaching is shaped around your circumstances and may include:

01

Using your NDIS plan

Understand funded supports, identify priorities and prepare questions for providers, plan managers or the NDIA.

02

Mental health connections

Explore suitable mental health, mainstream, community and funded supports while keeping choice and consent central.

03

Building confidence

Practise decision-making, self-advocacy and communication so your voice is present in the systems around you.

04

Resilience and recovery strategies

Develop coping approaches, routines and practical strategies for responding to stress, supporting wellbeing and continuing towards personal goals.

05

Canine-assisted walk-and-talk

Where suitable and agreed, a canine-assisted PRC walk-and-talk session with Bella, Tania’s toy poodle, may combine gentle movement, leaving the home, safely accessing the community, recovery-oriented engagement and emotional or animal-assisted support. Experiences vary and no clinical effect is promised. *Conditions apply to animal-assisted sessions.

What does a Psychosocial Recovery Coach do?

A Recovery Coach provides peer support informed by lived experience and supports a person living with psychosocial disability to strengthen mental health, resilience, recovery, choice and participation, navigate services and work towards their goals.

Is Recovery Coaching mental health treatment?

Recovery Coaching can support recovery planning, resilience, connection and practical strategies, but it does not replace clinical mental health assessment, diagnosis, treatment or crisis care. If there is immediate danger, call 000; for crisis support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Can Recovery Coaching help me use my NDIS plan?

It may include understanding your plan, identifying priorities, connecting with suitable supports and preparing for conversations with people involved in your plan.

Do you still provide Support Coordination?

No. Whole Warrior Solutions no longer offers standalone Support Coordination. Where suitable and within Recovery Coaching scope, support may include understanding plans, connecting with services and building confidence to navigate systems. Recovery Coaching is not represented as Support Coordination.

Can someone refer me?

Yes, provided you know about the referral and consent to being contacted, or the person has lawful authority to act for you.
