Recovery-oriented Functional Capacity Assessments for participants with psychosocial disability — episodic functioning captured properly.
Psychosocial disability presents unique evidentiary challenges in the NDIS. Functioning fluctuates, episodic deterioration is common, and standard fixed-point assessments often dramatically underestimate true support needs. Our psychosocial FCAs are designed specifically for this complexity.
A point-in-time assessment performed on a ‘good day’ can fundamentally misrepresent the lived experience of episodic mental illness. Our psychosocial framework explicitly captures functioning during periods of acuity, recovery and stability, and weights the evidence accordingly.
Yes — depending on the clinical question, we draw from the PIRS, LSP-16, HoNOS, WHODAS 2.0 and the K10.
Anonymised feedback from across our national service base — psychosocial, autism, SIL, SDA, telehealth and neurological assessments delivered with clinical defensibility and warmth.
"Ryan and the team understood my son's autism in a way no previous assessor has. They captured the masking, the burnout cycles, the sensory side — things we have been trying to explain to NDIA for years. The funding outcome reflected that."
"We are based in a remote postcode and have struggled to access specialist assessors for years. The whole process was done by video — the clinician was warm, well prepared, and the report was as detailed as any in-person assessment I have ever seen."
"I needed an SDA assessment urgently to support a hospital discharge. The team turned it around in five business days, coordinated with the hospital social work team, and the application was approved without needing additional evidence."
