NDIS Mentoring Services — Denmark WA

Where Experience Meets the Person

I offer life skills mentoring for NDIS participants across the Great Southern region of Western Australia — and online mentoring for participants anywhere in Australia.

With over 20 years of experience working with people aged 8 to 64 across disability, mental health, and community support, I bring a calm, skilled, and genuinely person-centred approach to every participant I work with.

This is not a program. It is not a group activity. It is one person, working thoughtfully with another, at their pace and toward their goals.

About LifeTrail as an NDIS Provider

An Experienced And Respected Unregistered Provider.
 
I am not a registered NDIS Service Provider. This was a conscious decision made to avoid administrative burdens that ultimately get passed on to participants.
 
I am available to Self-Managed and Plan-Managed participants only.
 
All my services are delivered in line with the NDIS Price Guide, not just a Service Agreement but also transparent communication, assessment to meet current needs.

FAQs about NDIS Mentoring

Yes, if you are self-managed or plan-managed. Mentoring is typically funded under the 'Capacity Building' budget, specifically matching line items for innovative community participation or development of daily living skills.

A LifeTrail Mentor works one-on-one with you to build independence, social skills, and confidence. Didier helps you work toward your specific NDIS goals, whether that is finding employment, learning to commute, or transitioning from your family home to live independantly.

No formal medical referral is required. You, your support coordinator, or a family member can get in touch with LifeTrail or another service providing mentoring directly to book an initial consultation.

Absolutely. LifeTrail's mentoring programs are directly mapped to your individual NDIS plan goals, by gentle steps towards short, medium and long term goals. Didier tracks progress transparently to ensure your funding achieves measurable outcomes for your independence.

Session lengths are highly flexible and tailored to your energy levels and goals. Most of Didier's participants prefer sessions between 1 to 3 hours, scheduled weekly.

What I Offer

In-Person Mentoring — Denmark and Albany
I work with a small number of local participants in Denmark and Albany on a regular basis. My local referrals come primarily through LAC relationships and community connections.
 
Sessions are highly flexible and match your specific goals.
 
They can take place:
  • In your home
  • At a café, library, or neutral location
  • In nature — walking or simply sitting outside
  • Online via Microsoft Teams
When participants choose to engage in mentoring with me, the journey naturally supports:
  • Building confidence and self-belief
  • Emotional regulation in safe environments
  • Social interaction and communication
  • Goal setting, decision making, and problem solving
  • Developing independence and resilience
Online Mentoring via Microsoft Teams — Available Australia-Wide
I offer structured one-on-one mentoring via Microsoft Teams for NDIS participants anywhere in Australia. This removes geographic barriers entirely, allowing participants in regional areas or those with transport limitations to access the same quality of support from a familiar environment.

 

NDIS Hiking Availability

Guided day hiking remains fully available for NDIS participants looking to combine capacity building with movement in nature.

Please note that all physical hiking services are now managed and covered under my standard commercial hiking licence and tour insurance framework.

Who I Work With

I work with participants aged 8 to 64 across a wide range of goals, abilities, and backgrounds who are serious about building real-life wellbeing.

Want to build confidence, independence, or social skills. Appreciate goal-aligned support rather than passive care.

Every LifeTrail journey begins the same way — with a conversation.

Reach out directly to me on 0410 756 065 to explore whether I am the right fit for you.

I wish all Mentors had a relationship with their Participants like Didier does.”

“When my time with Didier started I spent a lot of time at home, not wanting to go out, feeling incredibly anxious at just the thought of going out to do anything. I wasn’t achieving any goals that would have helped me to find a job and do what I want with my life, but, after such little time I was leaving my comfort zone to volunteer. While it was initially a scary concept, talking to people I am now a lot more confident in myself and I’ve even started studying full time.”

“Didier has had such a significant affect on our grandson’s life, already after two weeks he was leaving the house with us, coming food shopping. Now a few months on he has his first job at Woolworths. He loves his job and the new found independence. I can’t thank Didier enough”
