Psychosocial support is about more than assistance with daily tasks. It is about helping you build the confidence, skills, and connections that allow you to live a fuller, more independent life. At Lanara, our support workers hold university qualifications in psychology or related degrees, which means every interaction is informed by a genuine understanding of mental health, behaviour, and emotional wellbeing.
We work alongside you to identify what matters most in your life and develop a support plan that reflects your individual goals. Whether you are working towards greater independence, stronger social connections, or improved daily routines, our team is here to walk alongside you at your own pace.
We understand that every person’s experience is different. That is why our psychosocial support is built around you – your goals, your routines, and what genuinely matters to you – rather than a one-size-fits-all program.
Our support workers hold university qualifications in psychology or related fields, giving them a genuine understanding of mental health, behaviour, and emotional wellbeing. This means the support you receive goes beyond task assistance - it is thoughtful, trauma-aware, and focused on helping you build real confidence and independence.
Our psychosocial support is focused on what matters to you – whether that is building daily routines, strengthening social connections, developing life skills, or simply having consistent, reliable support from someone who genuinely understands your experience.
We believe that meaningful support happens in the moments that matter – learning a new skill at home, getting out into the community, or simply having someone consistent and trustworthy by your side. Our psychosocial support is built around your life, not a program.
Psychosocial support is designed for people living with a psychosocial disability - which refers to the functional impact of a mental health condition on daily life. It focuses on building independence, developing life skills, strengthening social connections, and supporting you to achieve your personal goals. It is suitable for self-managed and plan-managed participants who want consistent, person-centred support delivered in their home or community.
Psychosocial support is not therapy or clinical treatment. Our support workers work alongside you in your everyday life - helping you build routines, engage with your community, and develop the practical skills that support your wellbeing. What makes Lanara different is that our team holds university qualifications in psychology or relevant fields, which means they bring a genuine understanding of mental health and behaviour to every interaction.
Psychosocial support can help with a wide range of goals depending on what matters most to you. Common examples include building daily living routines, improving social confidence, developing skills for independent living, increasing community participation, and managing the practical challenges that come with living with a mental health condition.
Yes. We make every effort to match you with a support worker who suits your personality, interests, and goals, and to keep that relationship consistent over time. We believe that trust and familiarity are essential to effective psychosocial support, and we take the matching process seriously.
Psychosocial support is typically funded under the Capacity Building or Core Supports budgets in a participant's plan. If you are unsure whether your plan includes funding for this type of support, we recommend speaking with your Support Coordinator or plan manager. You are also welcome to contact us directly and we will help you understand your options.
