In Australia, people with disabilities use their NDIS funding to access Creative and Experiential Therapies that they choose themselves, because it helps them to live well, stay strong, active and healthy.
Creative and Experiential Therapies include therapies that use more than verbal approaches to engage people:
Creative Arts
Therapy
Music Therapy
Dance/Movement Therapy
Drama Therapy
Art Therapy
Play Therapy
Creative and Experiential Therapies are evidence-based approaches that: improve quality of life and independent living, keep people active in their body, help people regulate emotions, engage people in their communities, strengthen relational and communication skills, and provide a safe place where people can be free to be themselves.
Creative and Experiential Therapists have tertiary degrees and are members of professional associations. They are recognised members of Australia's Allied Health Work Force along with physiotherapists, occupational therapists and speech therapists.
Allied Health Services provided by registered Creative and Experiential Therapists for NDIS participants should be distinct from the services provided by support workers. Creative and Experiential Therapists should classified under capacity building along with other Allied Health therapies, and paid at the same rate as other Allied Health Professionals.
Creative and Experiential Therapies belong in the NDIS.
