What are NDIS therapy services and who are they for?
NDIS therapy services are the allied health supports, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, speech pathology, psychology and exercise physiology, that build a participant’s skills, mobility, communication or mental health toward the goals in their plan. They are billed under the Capacity Building support category, Improved Daily Living or Improved Health and Wellbeing (NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits 2026-27), and suit anyone whose plan includes one of these budgets.
How to choose a provider for this service
The provider list above is ranked using the criteria explained in the methodology block, and four checks matter most for therapy.
Registration. Occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech pathologists and psychologists must hold current AHPRA registration; exercise physiologists are accredited through Exercise & Sports Science Australia. Check the relevant register before booking.
Response time. Therapy enquiries on Carevo get a first response in a median of 16 minutes nationally, with 93 percent answered within 24 hours; weigh a provider’s actual speed against the response-time table further down this page.
Pricing transparency. Ask for a written session rate against the discipline’s NDIS price cap, and confirm whether travel time, at 50 percent of the service rate, and report writing are billed as separate line items.
Coverage and discipline fit. Confirm the provider services your suburb regularly and matches the specific discipline your plan goals need, since not every therapist covers every condition.
Which funding stream pays for therapy services, and who qualifies?
Most therapy sits under the NDIS Capacity Building budget, split between Improved Daily Living and Improved Health and Wellbeing, with hourly price caps set per discipline: $193.99 for occupational therapy and speech pathology, $183.99 for physiotherapy, $252.99 for psychology and $161.99 for exercise physiology, plus travel billed separately at 50 percent of the service rate (NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits 2026-27). You qualify if your NDIS plan already includes one of these budget categories tied to a disability-related goal. People 65 and over generally can’t use NDIS Capacity Building; they instead access therapy as a clinical support under Support at Home, or through the Commonwealth Home Support Programme if not yet assessed (Department of Health and Aged Care, 2025).
