Mental Health Support Worker
At Hale Foundation, we provide mental health support workers in Perth for NDIS participants who want practical help, encouragement and consistency. Our experienced team works alongside you to build confidence, strengthen social skills and support your independence. Everything is shaped around you and your needs, not a fixed program.
What Support Can Mental Health Support Workers Provide?
A mental health support worker gives you practical, day-to-day support, so you can stay engaged in your community and work towards your personal goals. This could be supported through social activities, helping keep on top of daily routines, getting to appointments, or adding structure to your week. The focus is on everyday participation and consistency rather than clinical treatment, while also supporting confidence and independence over time.
Why Choose Hale Foundation's Mental Health Support Workers?
Our mental health support workers take the time to understand your needs, goals and preferences, then provide support that aligns with what matters to you.
Whether it’s attending a group, getting out into the community or reconnecting with social activities, our team supports you to take part at your own pace.
We can provide transport to appointments, programs or activities as part of your approved NDIS plan, helping to reduce stress around getting there.
Support is focused on encouragement and building confidence. The aim is to help you feel more comfortable and independent in everyday life.
Our team can help you link in with other support or NDIS services, like Supported Independent Living (SIL), Individualised Living Options (ILO), or Assistance with Daily Life.
