Positive Behaviour Support

We believe in a holistic approach, collaborating with the entire support network to develop and deliver behavioural supports. Rather than just focusing on changing the person, we engage with their support networks, enhancing the environment, and foster skill development to facilitate positive change.

Taking a truly person-centred approach we ensure the individual’s needs and goals are at the forefront of all we do.

We offer both mobile and in office services – we will see you in your home, school, community and day services.

What is Positive Behaviour Support?

Positive Behaviour Support is an evidence-based framework that aims to understand and address challenging behaviours. It involves:

  1. Assessment: Our team conducts thorough assessments to identify the underlying causes of challenging behaviours. We consider environmental factors, communication needs, and individual preferences.
  2. Individualised Plans: Based on assessment results, we create personalized intervention plans. These plans focus on reinforcing positive behaviours and teaching alternative skills.
  3. Collaboration: We work closely with individuals, families, and caregivers to implement strategies effectively. Our goal is to create supportive environments that foster growth and well-being.

Director, Principal  Psychologist

“Every one of us have ‘behaviours’, both positive and challenging, it is what makes us human. When individuals find it challenging to express themselves or are frequently misunderstood, their behaviour often becomes a vital means of communication. Positive Behaviour Support aims to decipher the underlying message that a person is attempting to convey through their actions”.
