    Your Questions, Answered

    At Maple, we understand that anxiety can affect every part of daily life, from maintaining routines and attending appointments to participating in the community. Our Support Workers provide personalised support that is tailored to your goals, comfort levels, and individual needs, helping you build confidence and independence at your own pace.

    There are different forms of Anxiety and they each affect us in different ways. Whether you or your loved ones suffer from generalised anxiety, social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress, illness anxiety, or other forms of anxiety, there are ample support services available to help you cope with the challenges of everyday life.

    Living with an Anxiety Disorder can be debilitating, but modern medicine and neuroscience have identified many methods and support techniques that can make this condition easier to live with. Our Anxiety Support Specialists are trained to understand how anxiety affects your life, develop a personalised plan, and help you see it through to meet your needs for outstanding Anxiety Support.

    We know that trust and consistency are important when living with anxiety. That’s why we take the time to understand your personality, communication preferences, cultural background, interests, and support goals before matching you with a Support Worker. Our focus is on creating long-term relationships with people who genuinely understand you.

    Our Support Workers for Anxiety have studied and trained diligently to understand and respond to the needs of people with Anxiety Disorders. You can feel confident and at ease with our Anxiety Support Workers’ exceptional skills and qualifications.

    We work closely with participants, families, carers, and Support Coordinators to create practical support that feels safe and achievable. This may include assistance with daily living, community participation, attending appointments, developing routines, and building confidence in everyday situations.

    Yes. Many participants live with anxiety alongside psychosocial disability, autism, intellectual disability, physical disability, or other complex support needs. Our experienced team works collaboratively with your existing support network to ensure supports remain coordinated, consistent, and aligned with your goals.

    Participants and families choose Maple because they want support that feels reliable, personalised, and consistent. Support Coordinators choose Maple because of our responsiveness, communication, and ability to support participants with varying levels of complexity. We focus on building genuine relationships, maintaining continuity of care, and helping people live more confidently and independently.

    At Maple Community Services, we focus on building strong relationships with each and every client that approaches us, providing them with the tools, supports, and access to services that will enable them to live independently.

     

    Our priority is matching you with a like-minded Support Worker, someone who speaks your language, understands your goals, and is committed to ensuring you have all the necessary support you need to live your life to the fullest.

     

    People choose Maple because we care. We are a group of professionals from all walks of life who want to make a difference in yours. Commonly, a high percentage of Maple clients, as well as our Support Workers, come from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. 

     

    The Maple Family will work with you to create a personalised approach to your support schedule and roll out. We will continually review and recommend support updates, playing a pivotal role in ensuring the support you receive is optimal for you to achieve your personal, social, and emotional wellbeing goals.

    Throughout human evolution, we developed the crucial “fight or flight” response that was an essential protective mechanism when we were primal hunter-gatherers. When we encountered danger, our bodies would enter a state of hyperalertness. A boost of adrenaline increases the heart rate and increases our blood flow so we focus our energies on fighting for our lives or running from danger. Our experience of anxiety today is directly linked to this primal response, so you can imagine how it felt to face a bear or a pack of wolves when our ancestors lived in caves! As we evolved, that fight or flight mode has persisted and is frequently activated in inopportune everyday situations when stress and anxiety build up. This is anxiety as we now know it.

    Anxiety affects people to varying degrees and everyone has experienced some form of anxiety at moments throughout their lives. Anxiety may be triggered by certain activities, such as an exam or a job interview, and it is completely normal to experience these feelings. While some anxiety is a normal part of being human, there is a level at which it simply becomes too much to handle.

    Often, the thoughts and feelings associated with anxiety can be used positively to motivate us into action. However, some people experience anxiety on a more substantial level which severely impacts their quality of life, and it can become difficult to manage. When you experience anxiety regularly, feeling anxious more often than not, even with no specific triggers, can significantly affect your daily life.

    If you suffer from a long-term disability resulting from a mental health condition, also known as a psychosocial disability or PSD, it is covered under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), and you may be eligible for funding to benefit from our support services.

    It is estimated that 3 million people in Australia suffer from mild to moderate mental health issues and around 700,000 people have severe and persistent mental health illnesses that demonstrate complex needs and thus require support due to their disability.

    Psychosocial disabilities can be crippling if not addressed properly. At Maple Community Services, we can walk you through the assessment process to see if you qualify for NDIS anxiety benefits. If you or your loved one meets the criteria, we can facilitate the process and have the full capacity to provide any support services you need.

    To become an NDIS participant, you need to provide evidence of your mental health condition but a specific diagnosis is not required. NDIS support is contingent on how the condition impacts you and your daily activities, rather than the diagnosis itself, and that’s where our Anxiety Specialists can help you.

    Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a recognised mental health condition. Whether it is considered a disability depends on how significantly it affects a person’s daily life, independence, social participation, education, employment, or ability to manage everyday tasks. Some people with severe and ongoing anxiety may be eligible for disability supports, including NDIS funding, if they meet the required criteria.

    The NDIS aims to provide better access to high quality, personalised, and innovative supports and services to enhance the independence, and social and economic participation of people with disabilities and their carers.

    The NDIS funds several critical services for people with anxiety. These include personal care support, community access support, nutritional support, skill development, transport, household tasks and behavioural support. Plan Management and Support Coordination Funding are almost always offered to NDIS Participants when they receive their plan. The types and amounts of funding available are determined partly by the level of severity.

    By partnering with Maple Community Services, together, we can help you identify your priorities and cater a support plan that provides the specific services you need, enabling you to lead a fulfilling life.

    NDIS provides access to independent assessments for children and adults to determine their level of functioning. Rather than focusing on diagnosis, these anxiety assessments are designed to determine the severity of your or your loved one’s disability and level of functioning in everyday life. Talk to one of our Anxiety Support Workers and find out how we can help.

    Australians living with PSD are among the most disadvantaged in our community. The current lack of awareness and support can significantly affect the lives of people living with these conditions. They may experience challenges with communication and social inclusion, finding employment and suitable housing, and maintaining their physical health.

    The NDIS works with existing, community-based services such as Maple Community Services to support you in your everyday activities and live the life you want. Because PSD symptoms can present episodically or fluctuate in intensity, NDIS supports are designed to be flexible and accommodating, and increase and decrease depending on your individual needs.

    Many people living with anxiety experience challenges with routines, leaving the house, attending appointments, maintaining relationships, working, studying, or participating in social activities. If anxiety is regularly preventing you from doing things that are important to your daily life, it may be worth discussing support options with your healthcare team, Support Coordinator, or NDIS provider.

    Support can vary depending on individual needs and goals. This may include assistance with daily routines, building confidence in the community, attending appointments, developing life skills, maintaining a safe living environment, and establishing healthy routines. The right support can help people living with anxiety feel more confident, connected, and independent over time.
