NDIS Functional Psychiatric Assessments
Supporting NDIS Applications Through Psychiatric Assessment
Meta Psychiatry provides functional psychiatric assessments to support National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) applications, reviews, and ongoing access for participants with psychosocial disability. Our psychiatrists deliver clear, compliant reports that help demonstrate the functional impact of mental health conditions in everyday life.
Psychiatric Evidence for NDIS Access and Planning
Gaining access to NDIS support can be a complex process, particularly for individuals living with mental health conditions. A functional psychiatric assessment helps to establish whether a person meets the criteria for psychosocial disability under the NDIS, including how their condition impacts social participation, self-care, employment and community access.
Our psychiatrists are experienced in preparing NDIS-specific reports that provide:
• A formal psychiatric diagnosis
• History of mental health treatment
• Assessment of current functioning across multiple domains
• Description of supports required to maintain safety, independence and quality of life
We work with participants, support coordinators, psychologists and plan managers to ensure reports are accurate, relevant and submitted within expected timelines.
Compassionate and Collaborative NDIS Reporting
We understand that engaging with the NDIS can feel overwhelming. At Meta Psychiatry, we take the time to conduct thorough assessments in a supportive, non-judgemental setting. Reports are tailored to each individual’s lived experience and include detailed observations of functional impact, consistent with NDIS reporting requirements.
Our functional assessments are suitable for:
• Initial NDIS access applications
• Plan reviews and re-assessments
• Appeals and supporting evidence
• Coordination with allied health provider reports
Appointments are available in person at our Springwood clinic or via secure telehealth across Queensland. Our admin team is available to assist with referrals, documentation, and communication with other providers involved in your plan.
Innovative Treatments: Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS)
Meta Psychiatry is proud to offer Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) as part of our treatment options. rTMS is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, offering relief for individuals experiencing major depressive disorders. This therapy is particularly beneficial for patients who have not responded to traditional treatments.
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is an effective treatment for major depressive disorders.It involves the focal application of a localised, pulsed magnetic field to the brain inducing small electrical currents which stimulate nerve cells.
