NDIS Occupational Therapy Perth
The NDIS covers occupational therapy to help participants live more independently and confidently by improving physical movement, building daily living skills, and supporting emotional well-being. Through personalised programs, participants can reach their maximum potential and achieve a more fulfilling life.
LifeLift’s friendly and professional team of occupational therapists are NDIS registered, providing mobile and clinic-based occupational therapy services in Perth and select parts of regional Western Australia.

How Do NDIS Occupational Therapy Services Help?
Occupational therapy supports people to live more independently, confidently, and safely by improving their ability to complete meaningful daily activities. It provides tailored programs and professional guidance to help people care for themselves, participate in their community, and manage everyday tasks such as eating, sleeping, cooking, shopping, learning and working.
Our NDIS-approved occupational therapists conduct detailed functional capacity assessments – including driving assessments, psychosocial functional capacity assessments, and assistive technology assessments – to determine what type of rehabilitation and supports are needed to enhance mobility, confidence and independence.
The findings from these assessments are used to design a personalised, evidence-based therapy plan that focuses on improving a participant’s functional capacity and overall quality of life.
Depending on individual needs, our occupational therapists may recommend home modifications, adaptive equipment and assistive technologies such as grab rails, ramps, scooters or mobility aids to make everyday living safer and more manageable.
Our goal is to help clients achieve their NDIS goals, maintain independence, and enjoy a more fulfilling life.

Functional Capacity Assessments
LifeLift provides thorough evaluations to help NDIS participants achieve realistic goals. Our AHPRA‑registered health professionals assess physical, cognitive and functional abilities. A functional capacity assessment is a comprehensive assessment that measures an individual’s ability to perform daily tasks and identify support needs.
Assessments are fast‑tracked for timely reporting and support access. We ensure care is holistic, collaborative and cost‑effective. Our therapists may recommend assistive technology, home modifications or telehealth services based on the functional capacity assessment outcomes.

Do I Need an NDIS Occupational Therapy Service Agreement?
NDIS participants with approved funding for occupational therapy services may be required to sign a Service Agreement before supports begin. This agreement outlines the details of your NDIS plan, the therapy services to be delivered, the total cost, and the responsibilities of both the participant and provider. It ensures transparency, understanding, and consistency throughout your therapy journey.
For occupational therapy services to be funded under the NDIS, they must be directly linked to helping you achieve your personal NDIS goals. These supports generally fall under the Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living category.
Your dedicated NDIS occupational therapist will also provide regular written reports and progress updates, helping to measure your achievements, guide future recommendations, and ensure your plan continues to meet your needs.

Is OT or physio better?
Both occupational therapy (OT) and physiotherapy (PT) are vital allied health professions, focusing on different goals.
- Physiotherapy targets physical rehabilitation, movement and strength after injury or illness.
- Occupational therapy focuses on daily function, independence, and meaningful activities like self-care, work and community engagement.
Most NDIS participants benefit from a combined approach, with both therapists collaborating to achieve the best possible outcomes.
