Behaviour Support Services

Behaviour support services look to empower individuals and promote their well-being by providing compassionate assistance in managing challenging behaviours. With our behaviour support services, we focus on addressing the root causes of challenging behaviour, fostering long-term positive change, and enhancing the quality of life of individuals living with a disability.

What is Behaviour Support?

Behaviour support is a specialised function available within the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) designed to improve the quality of life of those who may experience difficulties regulating their actions. Behaviour support services as a whole focus on understanding the reasons behind certain behaviours and creating strategies to support positive behavioural change. 

If an individual needs what the NDIS labels as positive behaviour support to manage challenging behaviours, the NDIS will include it within your or your loved one's plan. If they do include it, you can get assistance from a specialised NDIS behaviour support practitioner, otherwise known as a behaviour support therapist. However, it is important to know that you may need to provide additional evidence and reports if you're seeking to add it to your plan. 

Suppose you receive funding from a positive behaviour support practitioner (PBS practitioner). In that case, you'll have access to personalised help to address the behavioural challenges you or your loved one are facing.
