You’re not imagining it — psychology funding is reducing from NDIS plans. And neurodivergent families are being hit the hardest.

In this critical solo episode, Jane breaks down the real impact of recent NDIS changes, including the hidden rollout of Section 33, why psychology is being reframed as a ‘Medicare issue’, and how support for emotional regulation, anxiety and trauma is being stripped away under the radar.

If you’re navigating plan reviews, therapy cancellations, or watching mental health supports vanish — this episode gives you the language, strategy and advocate for yourself or your child.

What We Cover:
The quiet rollout of Section 33 and what it means for your child’s plan
Why psychology for ADHD, anxiety, trauma and RSD is no longer ‘reasonable and necessary’
The difference between clinical vs. functional supports — and how to frame them
What psychologists are being told, and why they may redirect you to Medicare
How to advocate for functional impact without breaching new NDIS rules
The cost blowout no one’s talking about: $600+ monthly gap payments for ADHD families
Why early intervention cuts contradict everything the NDIS claims to support
What to say in your next plan review — including exact phrases for therapy justification
The personal toll on ADHD mums trying to keep their kids afloat — emotionally and financially
