Fast, modern, low-pressure, and personalised NDIS support that's LGBTQIASB+ and neurodiversity affirming.

Hello, I’m Dion (he/him).

I’m an autistic, ADHD, queer person and I have my own NDIS plan, so I know exactly what it’s like navigating the NDIS.

After my first plan was approved, I wasn’t really given any guidance on what to do or how to start using my plan. I also had a tough time finding providers that were like me and treated me like a peer. So, I built a team of queer and neurodivergent people, and created Neuroqueer for anyone else who might like some ‘neuroqueer’ folks in their corner.

Working with a peer means that you have someone of your team that has their own personal experiences with neurodivergence, LGBTQIASB+, and the NDIS.

This gives us a unique insight that allows us the find great, affirming service providers for you to help you reach your goals.

Some research even shows that taking a peer-framework approach to disability services enhances understanding and empathy, leads to improved outcomes, more empowerment and self advocacy, and can even be more cost effective than traditional alternatives.

Stuff we care about.

We are peer-driven

Talking to us is low-pressure and can be done any way that you like.

We're available via messaging, call, video call , email, or even in person depending on where you’re based.

If you need to end a call with us, need a break, or need any accommodations at all we totally get it and support you 100%.

We are low-pressure

We only work with a handful of people at a time, so you get all of our attention from day one.

That means we’re really good at getting things done quickly for you, and we’re available when you need us.

We are fast

We know your name, your goals, what's important to you, and anything else you want us to know.

We’re queer and neurodivergent, so there’s no need to mask around us. Be yourself!

We are affirming and personalised

Our Services

All of our services are delivered by peers (people who are queer, neurodivergent or have some kind of related lived experience to you). Our peers have both lived experience and professional expertise because we believe that it feels better to be surrounded by people who are affirming and understand each other.

We focus on creating safe, welcoming spaces where neurodivergent and LGBTQIASB+ people can access support without masking or conforming to traditional expectations.

NDIS Support Coordination

We help you navigate the NDIS and put your plan into action. From finding the right providers to helping you manage your funding, our support is designed to make the process easier and less overwhelming. With our peer-led approach, you’ll always feel supported by someone who has lived experience.

Social Work

Our Social Workers offer holistic support to help you navigate life’s challenges. Whether it’s advocacy, housing, relationships, systems, or access to community supports, we work alongside you with a trauma-informed, peer-led approach.

NDIS Psychosocial Recovery Coaching

Our recovery coaching is all about working with you to set goals, build confidence, and find balance in your life. This support is flexible and tailored to what you need, delivered by peers who bring both understanding and professional expertise in counselling.

Therapy Assistance

We provide practical and emotional support to help you apply what you’ve learned in therapy to your daily life. Whether it’s building routines, practicing new skills, or creating positive habits, our Peer Therapy Assistance is here to bridge the gap between therapy sessions and real-world outcomes.

Mentoring

Our NDIS Mentoring supports you through key life stages, whether you’re building independence, learning new skills, or navigating big transitions like moving out, starting study, or changing routines. We offer hands-on, peer-informed support tailored to your goals, helping you grow confidence, decision-making skills, and self-advocacy along the way. This is real-world mentoring grounded in lived experience.

Counselling

Our Counsellors are here to offer a safe, affirming space to talk things through. Whether you’re exploring your identity, processing trauma, or looking for strategies to manage stress and emotions, our peer-delivered counselling combines lived experience with professional expertise, always centred on what matters to you.

Support Work

Our Peer Support Workers are here to help with day-to-day activities, like self-care, personal tasks, household chores, and staying connected to your community. With their lived experience and affirming approach, they’ll work alongside you to meet your goals.

Occupational Therapy

Our Occupational Therapists will support you to build independence and do more of the things that matter to you, whether that’s at home, in your community, or in your day-to-day routines. We’re designing our Occupational Therapy service to be affirming, collaborative, and truly neuroqueer.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We work remotely, so Neuroqueer is available to anyone in Australia.

    You choose how to communicate with us, which means you can use our services remotely via phone calls, video calls, messaging, or even face-to-face depending on where you are.

  • Our services are at no cost to you. We charge the standard NDIS rates which are deducted from the relevant, dedicated budgets in your plan.

  • Most NDIS plans come with Support Coordination already included. If your plan doesn’t include this, you can request it by talking to your NDIS Local Area Coordinator (LAC).

  • If you have a psychosocial disability such as Autism, Psychosocial Recovery Coaching may already be included in your plan. If it’s not, you can chat to your Local Area Coordinator (LAC) for more information.

  • You can change providers at any time. Contact us using our contact form and we’ll support you through the process.

  • We are able to support you if you have a Plan Managed or Self Managed NDIS plan.

  • Please email networking@neuroqueer.com.au

  • See our Jobs at Neuroqueer page.

  • We use the acronym LGBTQIASB+ to acknowledge Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer people, as well as Sistergirls, and Brotherboys.

    The + symbol represents the many other sexualities, genders, and experiences not explicitly named, including Asexual, Aromantic, Agender, Non-Binary, and others.

  • For us, neurodiversity is an inclusive word that describes the experience of having a different way of moving through the world because of how our brains work.

    Sometimes that’s something we’re born with, like being Autistic, having ADHD, or learning and thinking differently. Other times, it’s shaped by what we’ve been through, like the lasting effects of trauma or brain injury.

    We honour all neurodivergent experiences, whether innate, acquired, diagnosed, or self-identified. All are valid, all belong, and you’re one of us.

  • Nope! While we centre and prioritise support for LGBTQIASB+ and neurodivergent people, you don’t need to identify with either to access our services.

    If our values resonate with you and you’re looking for support that’s affirming, flexible, and human, you’re welcome here.
