Positive Behaviour Support Practitioners

Our Melbourne-based practitioners provide an ethical and empathic approach to supporting adults and children (7+) whose behaviour is causing them distress or harm, is harmful to those around them, or is preventing them from doing things that are important to them, such as attending school, work, or community programs. We provide positive behaviour support for people who -

Have or are applying for NDIS Improved Relationship (IR) Funding

Have NDIS Improved Daily Living (IDL) funding and need skills-building therapy

Our Approach

Our team of practitioners are allied health professionals who specialise in positive behaviour support. Together, we provide –

Person-centred, evidence-based strategies & support

We look for the reasons behind a person’s behaviours of concern, taking note of triggers and environmental and societal factors. We create personalised behaviour support plans with proactive and response strategies and progress measures that help people achieve their personal goals. 

Trauma informed and neurodiversity affirming support

We take time to build trusting relationships and prioritise establishing physical and emotional safety for the participant. We celebrate diverse ways of being and never seek to suppress neurodivergent traits with positive behaviour support, and we do not support or encourage the restriction of self-regulating behaviours. 

Collaboration with care teams, families, and informal supports

We know that collaboration is key to successful outcomes. We work closely with care teams, parents, family members and informal supports, providing psychoeducation and personalised training / coaching. This enhances understanding and helps guide the consistent implementation of strategies.

Face to face support in the locations that matter most

We offer face to face support in NW, NE, West and North Melbourne so we can work with people in the locations that they spend their time in / want to spend more time in. This can include home, school, shops, local community spaces.

How our positive behaviour support service works

After we have accepted your NDIS PBS referral form, your practitioner/s will -

1. Assess and create a positive behaviour support plan

Before making any changes, our practitioners will get to know the participant and conduct a functional behaviour assessment. From the findings of this assessment, they will create a bespoke behaviour support plan with individualised strategies to help them achieve their personal goals. 

2. Implement strategies and collaborate with supports

After the positive behaviour support plan has been introduced, we begin working with the participant, helping them learn and adopt the recommended strategies. We also collaborate with their care team and relevant supports to explain the plan, provide psychoeducation, training and coaching.

3. Provide ongoing monitoring and support

We monitor the participant's progress and make changes to the plan if necessary. We provide support and guidance to the participant and their supports until goals are achieved. Once everyone involved is confident that our services are no longer needed, we fade the service out.  

Skills-building therapy

Are you on long waitlists for OT or other therapy? Or in need or proactive support while waiting on Improved Relationship (IR) funding?

Our positive behaviour practitioners provide personalised skills-building therapy in Melbourne for participants with Improved Daily Living (IDL) funding. Short term modules include conflict resolution, emotional literacy and regulation, social interaction skills and transport training.
