Positive Behaviour Support

We have a small team of behaviour support practitioners who use a holistic framework for understanding each participant and their behaviour. We provide person-centred strategies through behaviour support; this includes collaboratively gathering information and conducting assessments that informs the behaviour support plan. We then provide training / education to the participant and their support network.

We recommend and support the implementation of both reactive strategies (for reducing the risks of harm) and proactive approaches (to support positive change and growth). As behaviour is a way of communicating dysregulation and/or one’s experience of difficulty, proactively reducing stressors, meeting needs and skill development are essential for reducing behaviours of concern and improving overall quality of life.
