How we rank providers

Rankings in Victoria use directory relevance and observable activity on Carevo: service match, distance, register-sourced status fields, whether an enquiry can reach the provider, and recent response and connection activity. Rankings are recalculated daily. They do not assess care quality or recommend a provider.

How this list is built. Providers shown here either list ocd as a capability or have connected on a Carevo enquiry associated with it; therapy, allied health, psychology, support work, social and community support, and occupational therapy are used only as supporting service-match signals. Relevant enquiry activity ranks above self-declaration. A connection records willingness to make contact, not proof that support started, was completed, or went well.
Activity on Carevo. We measure recent actions such as connecting on an enquiry, opening its contact details, responding, and an inquirer reporting whether a connection helped. These are platform activity signals, not an assessment of the support delivered.
Condition-specific activity. Providers who have connected on enquiries associated with ocd rank above providers who only list it as a capability. A connection is not proof of experience, quality, or a completed service.
Service match. Providers are ranked by how closely their registered services and capabilities match what you are searching for.
Register-sourced status. NDIS registration fields come from the NDIS Commission provider register. Aged care approval fields come from the My Aged Care register. These statuses are ranking inputs, not Carevo endorsements, and you should confirm the current register entry before choosing a provider.
Carevo enquiries. Providers who have paused requests from us are moved down among providers with the same relevance. They stay visible and are marked as not receiving Carevo enquiries.
Recent activity. Providers active on Carevo recently (a connection, a login, or a profile update) get a small boost, the same signal shown as "Active this week" on their card. It is deliberately small: stronger relevance and condition evidence outweigh a recent login.
Local presence. Providers confirmed in Victoria rank above those covering only the broader region.

What the enquiries status means

It answers one question: would a request sent through Carevo today actually reach them? It is not a rating, it is not about the provider's books, and it is not a statement about their capacity, their waiting list, or the quality of their care.

Receiving: At least one contact on their account is set up to receive new requests from us, and someone has signed in recently enough for us to say a person is there.
Not receiving: Every contact on the account has unsubscribed or paused, so we have no way to pass an enquiry on.
No status shown: We cannot tell either way, so we say nothing rather than label the provider. The account is set to receive enquiries, but nobody has signed in recently, or there are no contact details on file. It is not a negative mark, and most listings sit here.

A provider who is not receiving our enquiries may well be taking new clients directly. Providers set this themselves and can turn it back on at any time from their Carevo account or from any email we send them. Providers not receiving our enquiries are moved down the list and never hidden. It is refreshed daily, so a provider who resumes, or signs in, reappears within a day.

What the Carevo activity rating means

The Strong activity rating describes how a provider behaves on Carevo, not the care they deliver.

Where it starts: Every provider starts at a baseline of 50.
What moves it: Enquiries from the last 90 days. The strongest positive is a care seeker naming that provider as the one who helped them. The clearest negative is connecting on an enquiry and never opening the contact details.
How it is kept honest: Recalculated daily from scratch, shown only above the baseline and only with at least two scored signals, and removed automatically when either stops being true. It cannot be purchased.

It is not an endorsement, a recommendation, or an assessment of care quality, and we do not screen providers for complaints. Complaints are handled by the NDIS Commission and the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission. See the full activity rating methodology.

OCD support across Victoria

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition involving unwanted intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviours or mental acts that a person feels compelled to perform, often consuming significant time and interfering with daily life. When OCD causes a permanent and substantial functional impairment, the NDIS may provide support to help a person manage daily activities, build independence, and access specialist therapy. Access to consistent, evidence-based support can significantly improve quality of life for people living with severe OCD.

How to check a provider's credentials

Carevo shows register-sourced status fields and links you to the official Australian registers so you can confirm the current entry yourself. Here is what each listing shows and where to check it. A listing on Carevo is not an endorsement.

NDIS registration

Listings show whether a provider reports being NDIS registered. You can confirm a provider's current registration and approved support types yourself on the NDIS Commission's public provider register.

Aged care approval

The aged care approval label is sourced from the Australian Government's My Aged Care provider register. Confirm the current entry and the services listed there before choosing a provider.

ABN you can check

Most listings include the provider's Australian Business Number, shown on the profile. You can look it up on the Australian Business Register to confirm the business is registered and active.

Complaints process

If you have a concern about any provider, you can lodge a complaint with the NDIS Commission or the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission at any time. We also accept complaints via our own channel.

Understanding Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition characterised by persistent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviours or mental rituals (compulsions) performed to reduce the distress caused by those thoughts. About 3.6% of Australians aged 16-85 experienced OCD in the past 12 months (ABS National Study of Mental Health and Wellbeing, 2020-2022). It is often misunderstood as simply being neat or organised, but severe OCD can be profoundly disabling. Obsessions may involve contamination, harm, symmetry, religious or sexual themes, or a general sense that something is not right. Compulsions can consume hours each day, including washing, checking, counting, arranging, and mental reviewing. Severe OCD can trap a person inside their home, destroy relationships, and prevent any meaningful daily functioning. The NDIS funds support for people whose OCD causes permanent and significant psychosocial disability despite optimal clinical treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does OCD qualify for the NDIS?

OCD can qualify for the NDIS when it is severe, chronic, and causes a permanent substantial reduction in functional capacity that is not fully managed by treatment. Mild to moderate OCD that responds well to therapy is less likely to meet NDIS access criteria, but severe OCD that significantly impacts a person's ability to work, maintain relationships, or carry out daily tasks may qualify. Carevo lists relevant service providers; confirm their condition-specific experience, credentials and local availability directly.

What NDIS supports can help with OCD in Victoria?

NDIS funding may cover eligible disability support, including help with daily life. Clinical treatment for mental-health symptoms belongs to the health system. Discuss treatment funding with your clinician and check disability supports against your plan.

Is ERP therapy for OCD funded by the NDIS?

Can OCD affect a person's ability to work and how does the NDIS help with this?

Severe OCD can make it very difficult to maintain employment due to the time consumed by obsessions and compulsions, difficulty concentrating, and avoidance behaviours. The NDIS can fund supports that build skills, routines, and strategies to help a person with OCD increase their capacity to participate in work and community life. Carevo connects people in Victoria and the Victoria (VIC) with NDIS providers who can support employment-related goals alongside therapeutic goals.

How do I explain OCD functional impact for an NDIS access request?

When applying for the NDIS with OCD, it is important to document how the condition impacts daily life activities such as leaving the house, personal hygiene routines, completing tasks at work or study, and maintaining relationships - rather than just describing the diagnosis. Detailed letters from treating psychiatrists or psychologists explaining time lost to rituals and the resulting functional limitations are very valuable. Carevo can connect people in Victoria with support coordinators across the Victoria (VIC) who have experience helping applicants with OCD present their functional evidence effectively.
