If you are ready to take the driver’s seat in your NDIS journey, you can jump straight to our online intake form.

The core promise of the NDIS is to provide participants with “choice and control.” However, navigating the vast array of disability support services in Melbourne can sometimes feel like the opposite, overwhelming and restrictive. To truly live a life with choice, you need more than just a list of providers; you need a clinical partner who helps you build the skills to actually exercise that choice. Whether it is choosing where you live, how you travel, or what your daily routine looks like, the right support makes all the difference.

At Posity, we provide the clinical foundation for your independence. Our Occupational Therapy Services are designed to ensure that the support you receive in Blackburn and Bundoora isn’t just “care,” but a pathway to self-determination.

Empowering Choice Through Functional Skill Building

To have real choice, you must have the capacity to act. Specifically, our disability support services in Melbourne focus on building the physical and cognitive skills required for independence.

  • Personal Autonomy:
    Specifically, we help you master “Activities of Daily Living” (ADLs) so you can rely less on others and more on yourself.
  • Community Choice:
    Through Community Occupational Therapy, we help you navigate the suburbs of Melbourne safely, from local libraries to public transport hubs.
  • Advocacy and Evidence:
    Furthermore, our Adult OT Assessment and Services provide the documentation needed to ensure the NDIS funds the specific lifestyle choices you want to make.

Support for Every Milestone

We believe that choice starts from a young age. Therefore, Posity offers a continuum of care that grows with you.

1. The Early Years (0-7 Years)

For families starting out, Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) is about giving children the best start. Specifically, our Paediatric Occupational Therapy team focuses on evidenced-based and play-based learning. Consequently, Occupational Therapy for Kids helps children develop the communication and motor skills needed to express their own choices as they grow.

2. The Adolescent Transition

The move from child to adult services is a critical time for maintaining choice. Specifically, our Occupational Therapy for Adolescents focuses on vocational readiness and social autonomy. We help teens in Melbourne’s east and north prepare for life after school, ensuring they have the skills to pursue further study or employment.

3. Stretching Your Support Hours

In 2026, many participants find that their budget for high-level clinical support is limited. To ensure you still have access to frequent practice, we utilise Allied Health Assistants. Specifically, an AHA can help you practice your OT goals multiple times a week, ensuring your progress doesn’t stall due to budget constraints.

Flexible Delivery for a Modern Melbourne

We know that “choice” also means having flexibility in how you receive your therapy. Therefore, Posity offers:

  • Clinic-Based Care:
    High-energy sessions in our specialised Blackburn and Bundoora spaces.
  • In-Home Support:
    Working on your goals in the environment where they matter most.
  • Telehealth Services:
    If you prefer the convenience of home or live in regional Victoria, our Telehealth Services provide a direct line to our expert OTs.

Your Partner in Purposeful Living

At Posity, we are more than just a therapy provider; we are advocates for your independence. Specifically, we serve individuals across Melbourne who are ready to move beyond “traditional care” and toward a life of genuine choice. By focusing on your strengths and functional goals, we help you build the life you want to live.
