PotentialMe has built a strong local presence across Melbourne's inner southeast, including Carnegie. Our NDIS support workers are recruited, trained, and matched with participants who live here, so you get someone who understands the area and is close by when you need them. Whether your support needs are practical, emotional, or both, we focus on consistency, quality, and genuine fit.

Compassionate Support

NDIS Mental Health Support Workers


Carnegie is a busy, multicultural suburb with plenty of community life. For NDIS participants, that kind of environment can offer real opportunity, but it can also feel overwhelming without the right support. Our mental health support workers in Carnegie are chosen for their empathy, their training, and their ability to build trust with the people they work with.


We operate in close coordination with your clinical team to deliver support that suits your pace and your goals. We also recognise that mental health conditions often bring isolation and difficulty managing daily life. Having a reliable support worker who genuinely understands that experience is not a small thing. Our support workers are trained to assist participants with psychosocial disabilities, intellectual disabilities, acquired brain injuries, and Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Key Areas of Focus

How NDIS Support Workers Help


We recognise the uniqueness of each participant. Our support is structured around your needs, not a one-size-fits-all model.

Administration 

Staying on top of appointments, bills, and daily schedules can be overwhelming. Our support workers take care of the admin side so you can focus on living well.

Social and Community Participation

Community participation improves quality of life. We support participants in attending events, joining activities, and building genuine social connections.

    “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 met Sarah, I was in a really bad place. Now, after weekly sessions over the last few months, I’m making steady progress with my mental and physical health, as well as my relationship with my loved ones. I have no hesitation in recommending PotentialMe OT services.”

    “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.”
