Our services help you to access and optimise NDIS funds for persons with disability, and build your knowledge of the NDIS and inclusion in education settings.
Our advice is underpinned by years of experience within the highest teams of the NDIS. Better advice means more funding in your plan.
Our Services
-
Accessing the NDIS
Accessing an NDIS Plan can be difficult because users are required to submit various documents and therapeutic reports to support their claim. Our expert team can assist you in this process, advising you what is required.
-
Planning Meetings
We offer expert guidance in preparing clients for NDIS planning meetings. We ensure that your NDIS plan and funds management strategy aligns with your needs and goals, unlocking comprehensive personalised care. Our in-depth knowledge ensures you can make informed decisions, providing you with the flexibility to engage a wide range of therapists and support workers.
-
Planning Reviews
We also offer assistance in preparing clients for NDIS plan reviews or contesting plan review decisions.

NDIS and Education
We specialise in disability inclusion in the education sector, assisting parents to understand how NDIS funds are used in this space.
Our Expertise
We apply our extensive knowledge of the Disability Standards for Education (2005) and the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), to convey the full extent of provisions for students with disabilities.
Understandings was founded by Catherine O’Farrell, a highly regarded NDIS, education and community services specialist.
Between 2016 and 2021, Catherine was employed by the NDIS, where she worked in multiple senior positions.
What People Are Saying
“Understandings helped me to navigate the NDIS for my son’s speech development delay. At his NDIS planning meeting I was able to explain the full impact of his condition, and now he is a NDIS participant. Understandings also helps me to use his funds creatively to reach his disability goals.”
— Madeline, Berwick Victoria.
“My son was diagnosed with autism at 3. Catherine from Understandings was so helpful because she showed me how the NDIS works, and guided me during the NDIS planning meeting. Now my son uses his NDIS funds for therapy and the everyday assistance that he needs for his disability.”
— Linh, Keilor Victoria.
