NDIS Support Workers Bentleigh & Bentleigh East

Disability Support Workers

Your Partner in NDIS Support


Not all NDIS support workers are the same. At PotentialMe, we go beyond simply placing a worker with a participant. We recruit our own staff, put them through thorough training, and take the time to match each person carefully based on skills, experience, and personality. For participants in Bentleigh and Bentleigh East, that means receiving disability support from someone who is genuinely prepared for the role and right for you.

Compassionate Support

NDIS Mental Health Support Workers


Bentleigh and Bentleigh East are well-serviced, community-oriented suburbs with a strong local character. PotentialMe's mental health support workers operate in this area and are committed to being a consistent, trusted presence in participants' lives. Mental health conditions don't follow a schedule, and support shouldn't be rigid either. We take a flexible approach, working closely with your clinical team to deliver care that adapts to your needs.


We also understand that isolation and difficulty with daily tasks are very real experiences for many participants. A great support worker does more than assist with the practical side of life. They create an environment where you feel safe, heard, and supported. Our support workers are trained to work with participants with psychosocial disabilities, intellectual disabilities, acquired brain injuries, and Autism Spectrum Disorder.

    “Sarah really took the time to understand exactly where I was coming from. She made me feel safe and heard and I always felt more confident after my sessions with her. She is always friendly, professional and I could tell that she really cared.”

    “From the first time I met Sarah, I knew that I was never gonna go anywhere else for my therapy. Sarah took a truly holistic approach to my treatment and included things like physical health, my relationship with my family, and my work responsibilities into account when giving me advice. I’m not sure where I would be without her.”

    “When I first got my NDIS Plan, I had a lot of anxiety about managing my NDIS funding but ever since PotentialMe took over, I feel very comfortable and relaxed knowing that all my supports are paid accurately and on time and also feel great knowing how much funds I still have available at any time.”

    “One of the best things about PotentialMe OT is that they can fit around my schedule. Sarah would drive to my house for weekly sessions, and when that wasn’t possible, we would have our meetings on Zoom. This allowed me to prioritise my mental health without significantly impacting my busy life.”
