Maverick Supports: NDIS Mental Health and Disability Support Services in Sydney, NSW

Maverick Supports: Our Story

Maverick Supports is a Sydney based mental health and disability support company that was formed by two devoted and experienced Behaviour Support Practitioners who are enthusiastic about improving services for people with complex psychosocial (mental health) and disability challenges which affect their everyday lives. Our founders, Jeramy and Kara, offer extensive experience and passion to Maverick Supports. Jeramy Nusco is a TAFE and university educator who specialises in advanced behavioural techniques. Kara Dario has spent over 15 years campaigning for and supporting people with disabilities. We are currently focused on supports in the Western Sydney, South West Sydney, Illawara and Southern Highlands areas.

Our Commitment

We promise to innovate how the industry supports your psychosocial needs, starting with how we support you. We strive to do what we say, how and when we say it. We are solution-driven to give you what you need, and help you when you don’t know what that is. Psychosocial disability isn’t who you are, it’s just the label needed to support you to be the best version of you.
