What is a Psychosocial Disability?
We understand this term ‘Psychosocial Disability’ may be a term you haven’t heard before, or have had referred to as a diagnoses or trait. To explain simply, a psychosocial disability is when you experience barriers to living a full and contributing life, due to the way you think and feel and act.
You may find every day activities such as working, getting out and about in your community, keeping fit or attending social events tough or be completely out of your reach. Open Minds offers customers individualised NDIS Psychosocial Disability Supports to assist them with daily life at home and more.

This is where Open Minds can help. We have a proven history in supporting individuals through the NDIS process, with being one of the first NDIS providers in Queensland.
