- How does this work?
- It’s simple. Many people approach us saying, “I’m looking for a speech pathologist near me or a psychologist near me, but it’s hard to find someone available.” We understand this challenge, so we’ve compiled a list of NDIS providers—including Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, and Psychologists—who currently have availability near you. You can easily filter these providers by profession, state, and their waitlist length. Once you find someone who meets your needs, just click on their profile and fill in the contact form. We use this form to ensure that only genuine enquiries reach the providers. After the initial contact, you’re free to communicate with the providers however you prefer. We wish you the best of luck in finding the right NDIS service provider!
- Do I have to pay to contact the available providers?
- No, it’s completely free. We’re a small start-up based in Melbourne, and for us, building good relationships with people living with a disability, their caretakers, and NDIS support coordinators is far more important than making a quick buck. If you’re sceptical, we’d love to chat with you over the phone or answer any questions via email. Whether you’re looking ’for a support coordinator near me’ or trying to explore therapy with at-home NDIS options, we’re here to help. Feel free to call us anytime at +61 3 7037 0344 or email us at hi@supportsorted.com
- Why can’t I see the email or phone number of the providers?
- To protect providers from spam, we’ve set up a contact form as the initial point of communication. We ensure that only legitimate requests—whether you’re seeking a speech therapist near you or occupational therapy near you—are forwarded to the providers. From there, you’re free to continue the conversation with your NDIS provider in any way that works best for you.
- Can you find me a psychologist near me with current availability?

- Can support coordinators with availability get listed on Support Sorted as well?
- Absolutely. We recognise that finding support through the NDIS can be overwhelming, and many people search for ’a support coordinator near me’ to help navigate the process. We’re planning to expand our listings to service clients approaching us with “Hey, I’m looking for NDIS support coordinators near me but it’s confusing to know who to trust” soon. Once this happens, we will curate a NDIS support coordinators list for patients and caretakers to refer to. If you’re an NDIS support coordinator with current availability and interested in being listed, just give us a call at +61 3 7037 0344 or email us at hi@vsupportsorted.com.
- Who is Support Sorted?
- We’re two Melburnians, Dr Sam Donegan and Dr Lukas Wesemann, who are passionate about using technology to address inefficiencies in the Australian NDIS system. We believe that no one should wait for support if suitable providers are available right now. Whether you’re looking for help with psychosocial disability, child psychology near you, a key worker, a “NDIS can i buy it checklist” or information about NDIS autism funding - we are doing our best to provide this information to you and connect you with the right providers. Our goal is to make connections between NDIS participants and NDIS providers as seamless as possible for everyone involved.
