Our Approach to Positive Behaviour Support

Our PBS services are:

• Evidence-Based: Grounded in contemporary best practice research and science.

• Person-Centred: Focused on strengths, preferences, and human dignity.

• Practical and Sustainable: Designed for real-world environments across home, school, work, and community settings.

Our approach includes:

• Comprehensive Functional Behaviour Assessments (FBA) to understand the underlying causes of behaviours of concern.

• Development of clear, individualised Positive Behaviour Support Plans (PBSP) with proactive, preventative strategies.

• Focused skill development in communication, emotional regulation, and adaptive behaviour.

• Training and coaching for carers, support workers, and family members — supported by a full PBS Training Manual created by our team.

• Collaborative work with allied health professionals, educators, and support teams to create holistic support systems.
