What Impact6 is for

Do more of your life yourself.

Independence isn't doing everything alone. It's doing what you want, when you want, without waiting on someone else to make it happen.

  • Head out when you're ready.
  • Choose what's for dinner.
  • Speak up at work.
  • Pay your own bills.

Every task you can do yourself is a choice back in your hands. Impact6 builds the everyday skills behind those choices, in the areas of life that matter most at your stage, like running a home or getting along with people. The NDIS calls this functional capacity, and calls the areas of life domains.

What's different: a set 6 weeks, practice in real places, the same practitioner throughout, teaching shaped to how you learn, and a score at the start and the end. Why it works →

Find your 6 weeks

Start from the moment you're in.

Leaving school. Starting work. Moving out. Something changed. Life doesn't run to a timetable. Each program is built around what a stage of life asks of you, and the ages are only a guide. Choose the one that fits what you're facing now. The domains each one builds are listed on its card.

Can is the moment a task becomes yours. Not done for you. Done by you, because you practised it where it happens. Every can is a step toward the independence you choose.

Before you book

What to expect, up front.

What it asks of you

  • 2 sessions a week, 2 hours each, for 6 weeks. You pick the days and times, Monday to Friday, including after school (3.30 to 5.30pm).
  • The same times every week, so it fits around school, work and family.
  • For anyone under 18, a parent or carer at every session. You see what's practised and learn your part.
  • A small practice task between visits. That's how the skill sticks.

Who comes to your home

  • A registered allied health practitioner, such as an occupational therapist, developmental educator or speech pathologist, registered with AHPRA or accredited by their professional body.
  • Checked before they start: NDIS Worker Screening clearance, and a Working with Children Check where state law requires one.
  • Trained in the Impact6 method before their first session.
  • Clinical oversight throughout. Sessions are quality checked, and if progress goes backwards, a senior clinician reviews it.

Outcome Report

Every change documented. Confirmed.

Therapy shouldn't end with a guess. Your Outcome Report scores your 5 areas of life at the start and the end, in the language the NDIS uses, so everyone can see what changed. You have it in writing for your next plan check-in.

  • See the change. Progress you can see, not just feel.
  • Get your support team on the same page. Family and supports keep building on it. You choose who sees it.
  • Know what's next. What to keep practising.

Quick answers

Does this replace our current therapist?

No. They do different jobs. Ongoing therapy supports you over the long run. Impact6 is a short, focused block: twice a week for 6 weeks, the same practitioner, one goal practised in the places it matters, and a score at the start and the end. You can keep your regular supports going and add Impact6 as a concentrated push, if your plan has room for both. With your consent, we'll share the Outcome Report with your therapist so everyone builds on the same progress.

Who pays?

Your NDIS plan. The life-stage programs use Capacity Building: Improved Daily Living. WORK uses Finding and Keeping a Job. The plan check shows you where to look in your plan.

Why start now?

From 1 February 2027, funds you haven't used won't carry over when your plan is renewed. If your plan has Improved Daily Living funds, 6 weeks of Impact6 turns them into a skill you keep and a report that shows what changed. What the NDIS changes mean for your plan →

What happens after the 6 weeks?

You keep the skill and your Outcome Report, with a clear plan for what to keep practising. Family and supports know their part, so progress carries on. We send a short feedback form 4 and 8 weeks later, and if more support would help, we'll tell you what and why. When life moves on, you can start the next program.

Where do sessions happen?

Where your goal happens: at home, in your community or at work, face to face, anywhere in Australia. That's deliberate. A skill practised in your own kitchen or on your own bus route is one you can use the next day, not one you have to work out again somewhere else.

What if they won't join in?

Every session follows the same predictable shape, the work starts at a level they can manage, and they can say no to any activity. If it still isn't working, stop any time and pay only for the sessions delivered.

What if it isn't working?

Stop any time. You pay only for the sessions you've had, billed after each one. There's no exit fee.

Can NDIA-managed plans use Impact6?

Yes. Impact6 works with self-managed, plan-managed and NDIA-managed plans.

Can I talk to someone first?

Yes. Book a call time that suits you and we'll ring you then. Book a call time →
