NDIS provider based in Springfield Central (4300)
Psych Connect is based in Springfield Central and visits clients in their homes and communities. That makes Greater Springfield and the wider Ipswich area our shortest trips.
Shorter travel means less of your support time is spent on the road, and it helps us keep the same small team visiting you. Most support happens in your home and out in your community; we don't need you to come to us.
Where we visit
In Greater Springfield, we support participants in Springfield Central, Springfield Lakes, Spring Mountain, Augustine Heights, Brookwater and Bellbird Park. In central and eastern Ipswich, that includes the Ipswich centre, Booval, Redbank Plains, Collingwood Park and Goodna.
We also visit the growing west and north, including Ripley, Yamanto, Brassall and Rosewood, where many new families have moved in recent years.

Disability support in Springfield and Springfield Lakes
Springfield Central is where our team is based, and Springfield Lakes sits right beside it, so participants in both suburbs are among our shortest trips. Here, NDIS support usually means support work and personal care at home, community access, respite for families and support coordination, arranged around your week.
It can be as simple as help getting ready in the morning and a weekly shop, or practice with the local buses and the Springfield line until you can travel on your own. We also support participants nearby in Augustine Heights, Brookwater and Spring Mountain. Live in Springfield or Springfield Lakes? Call 0403 828 422 to talk through your plan.
A short drive from Springfield Central, Redbank Plains and its neighbours Collingwood Park and Bellbird Park are among our shortest trips. To the south-west, Ripley and the wider Ripley Valley are still filling with new streets and new families.
We provide the same supports in both: help at home, getting out, respite and support coordination. In Ripley, community access often starts with simply finding the local shops, parks and bus stops together.
Getting out locally
There's plenty close by for community access. The Springfield line connects Springfield Central and Springfield to Brisbane, and the Ipswich and Rosewood lines run through the Ipswich area, with local buses filling in the gaps.
In Springfield Central, Robelle Domain has parklands, lakes and long walking paths, and the Orion Springfield Central shopping centre is right beside the station. In Ipswich, Queens Park is home to a free nature centre, and Ipswich Libraries, including the library in Springfield Central, run activities throughout the year.

A home needs to match the design category in your plan; see SDA design categories and how SDA funding shows in your plan. Many families call these homes supported accommodation; around Springfield and Ipswich we can match you to an SDA home and the support inside it, close to our base.
Costs and travel
We charge within the maximum prices in the NDIS pricing schedule, with no hidden fees. Transport to activities, appointments and errands, and our travel to you, are charged under NDIS pricing rules and agreed with you before support starts. We work with self-managed, plan-managed and NDIA-managed plans, and we'll go through your plan with you on the first call.
Every Psych Connect support worker holds an NDIS Worker Screening Check, a current First Aid and CPR certificate and has completed the NDIS “Quality, Safety and You” orientation. Workers who support children also hold a Blue Card.
Our team also visits Brisbane, Logan, the Redlands and the Gold Coast from our Springfield Central base.
