NDIS Provider
I am no longer a registered NDIS provider so I can only now support self and plan managed. But I still support clients who have additional needs beyond a regular car cockpit set up.
I am happy to support clients that live within a 20 minute radius of Frankston.
Please send me an email via the contact section for a confidential quote.
Quotes are now taking way too long, more than six months, and in some cases being told you only qualify for specialist driver training if you have additional needs such as a spinner knob for example. So, if you wish to enquire about other line item numbers I can use, please send me a confidential email.
One thing that has remained consistent with Drive Skills 4 Life is my NDIS session prices, they have been consistent for three years now so don’t despair and worry that my prices will rise in the near future, they won’t.
Prices are $150 per session.
Prices correct as of 1st January 2021.
Counselling support for clients with driving anxiety and road trauma support.
In recent years I have trained as a counsellor, and now counsel clients who are fearful of getting behind the wheel or getting back behind the wheel after road trauma. Everyone deserves the right to be supported through this stage and I will be with you every step of the way.
These sessions can be done online, and can progress to being in the car as we progress, if you desire.
Sessions are available through NDIS and my aged care. Private billing is also available.
These sessions are $170 per hour.
Prices correct as of 1st July 2024.

Driver Support Program
Do you remember the feeling you had when you gained your licence all those years ago? I know I do! Excited, nervous, keen to get out there and explore further than my suburb or city – without having to catch the bus, ride my bike or bot a lift.
But I also remember it was a very long time ago (1985 infact) and I know my skills waned tremendously over the last few decades. It was only when I became a licence tester, then instructor that I realised how many bad habits I actually had!
So this is where the Driver Support Program steps in. This program has been created for the learner and the supervising driver to create a team dynamic where the parents can upskill by being involved in the driving lessons or be in communication with me in between lessons. This is a dynamic and exciting program which has seen parents be able to support their young adults in a confident manner and not having to worry about, “are they picking up all my bad habits?”
Curious to learn more? Prices vary depending on the package you’d like to purchase.

Stage three. At least 80 hours when we do one, roughly four hour session, which is my city experience. This includes lunch and refreshments, tolls and driving over the Westgate Bridge to Williamstown for lunch and back. $575 for one student.
