Our Story
Empowering Minds Disability Services was founded with a deep passion for helping individuals with disabilities and mental health challenges thrive. Our journey began as Empower Psychology, where our focus was on providing high-quality mental health support and counseling services. However, as we worked with more clients, we realized that the needs of the community extended beyond traditional psychology.
To create a more inclusive and holistic support system, we transitioned into Empowering Minds Disability Services. This change allowed us to expand our services to include NDIS-funded support work, psycho-social recovery coaching, social groups, and outreach services, ensuring that individuals receive the care they need in ways that best suit them.
What makes us different is our hands-on, personal approach. We recognize that not everyone is comfortable or able to visit an office for support, so we offer home visits and outreach services—a rare feature in the field of psychology. We believe that mental health and disability support should be accessible, flexible, and tailored to each person’s unique circumstances.
Located in Melton, we are developing a welcoming and fun office space within a warehouse—a place designed to feel comfortable and engaging rather than clinical. Our space will offer an environment where individuals can connect, learn, and grow while feeling truly supported.
With 15 years of experience in counseling and 2 years in the NDIS sector, we have built strong relationships with the community. We pride ourselves on going the extra mile, always ensuring that our clients feel heard and valued. Whether it’s responding to an urgent concern after hours or helping someone navigate the NDIS system, we are committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those we support.
