Drive Skills 4 Life - Anxiety & mental health specialists

Thanks for clicking on my website.  I hope you enjoy having a look around and find some helpful articles to assist.

With 2024 now upon us, it’s important to plan ahead as spots fill up very fast.  After school spots are booked one term in advance, so if you’re wanting lessons from term two onwards for example, please touch base now.  

If you are making enquiries about NDIS funding, please be aware there is quite a long wait getting funding approved at present.  It is taking about 4-6 months, so I ask you to kindly be prepared and plan ahead, to avoid disappointment later. 

I also wanted to inform you that I am now also working as a qualified and registered Counsellor, supporting clients who are fearful of gaining their independence, or who have suffered road trauma. 

Funding is available through the NDIS, my aged care or private billing.  

My days on the road this will be Monday to Thursday only. 

Many thanks and have a lovely day.

    Sarah’s level of professionalism and knowledge of our road rules and responsibilities is super affordable and invaluable to any and all learner drivers who are about to take the wheel of independence with Drive Skills 4 Life! I really enjoyed her method of teaching: she would always approach any hiccups with friendship and never judge your driving style, in fact she encourages it! Drive Skills 4 Life is worth your time! Sarah is flexible, so if you’re a mum – she’s got a safety car seat for your babe, if you’re a student – she’s available as the home bell rings! Give Drive Skills 4 Life a go!

    Definitely recommend going through drive skills for life when learning to drive. I have had my probationary drivers license for 3 weeks now after doing multiple hours with Sarah and I have never felt so confident when driving on the roads. She taught me many different things that not many other people had heard of when I told them, she has a great knowledge with what she is doing and very easy going! Thanks for teaching me and giving me skills I can use for the rest of my driving years!

    Drive Skills 4 Life is a highly professional and well run drive school. I can't recommend Sarah highly enough! Her kindness and good humour helped me overcome my anxiety in regards to driving on public roads. Driving has changed from something I was scared of and would avoid to something I actively pursue as a hobby as I venture into the world of Motorsport. Thank you Sarah, you gave me my freedom, without you by my side I would have been too anxious to pass my driving test last year!

    I highly recommend Drive Skills 4 Life! I cannot thank Sarah enough for making my learning experience as enjoyable as it was. Sarah is very patient, encouraging and makes you feel very comfortable. Before my lessons with Sarah I lacked the confidence and knowledge needed to pass my drivers test. After a few lessons my confidence had increased and I had the knowledge and skills to easily pass my drivers test.
