About Us

CARE @Metamorphosis Coaching is a values driven organisation committed to empowering individuals to lead healthier, more independent lives.

About the Role

The Psychosocial Recovery Coach works alongside NDIS participants with psychosocial disabilities, helping them take control of their lives and work towards their personal recovery goals. This includes developing and implementing individualised recovery plans, coordinating supports, and facilitating connections with both clinical and community based services.
