Recovery Coaching
Recovery is not a straight line, and a support that only works on good days is not much of a support.
Overview
Psychosocial Recovery Coaching is for people whose disability comes from a mental health condition. The work is practical and ongoing. Building routines that survive a bad week. Planning for the periods when things deteriorate, before they deteriorate. Rebuilding confidence after a hospital admission. Keeping a support team working together rather than in six separate directions.
We practise from a recovery orientation, which means the goals belong to the person and the work follows their pace rather than a service timetable.
Our clinical background sits in acute inpatient psychiatric care. We have seen what happens when someone is discharged into a support system that was never properly set up. Most of what we do is aimed at that gap.
People living with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, severe depression, complex trauma, anxiety disorders and other psychosocial disability. It suits people leaving hospital or supported accommodation, people who are isolated, and people whose functioning changes significantly from week to week.
Practical details
Recovery Coaching is funded from Capacity Building. We charge at the NDIS price limit. All NDIS supports are GST-free under section 38-38 of the GST Act.
We never coordinate and deliver direct supports for the same participant. No conflicts of interest, ever.
We work with plan-managed and self-managed participants, in English, Hindi and Nepali.
We work across Greater Sydney. See the areas we serve.
Vitalya is led by Ashish Sharma, an Accredited Social Worker with the Australian Association of Social Workers and a Master of Social Work, currently practising in acute inpatient psychiatric care.
