What Are Specialist Behaviour Support Services?

Specialist behaviour support is more than just managing behaviours. It’s about finding the cause and creating long-term solutions. Our approach follows the principles of Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), which focuses on improving quality of life while reducing behaviours of concern in safe and respectful ways.

This process begins with a Functional Behaviour Assessment (FBA), where a behaviour support specialist examines the triggers, patterns, and possible functions of certain behaviours. From there, we create a positive behaviour support plan—a personalised strategy document that includes practical steps, environmental adjustments, and skill-building activities.

Every plan is created by a qualified specialist behaviour support practitioner and aligns with NDIS guidelines. We also work closely with the participant’s wider support network to make sure everyone is on the same page.

Our Specialist Behaviour Support Services In Tin Can Bay

Access to local services means faster support and stronger connections. At Your Best Life Behaviour Support, our practitioners deliver a complete process designed to help participants and their carers feel supported from the very first conversation.

Referral & Intake

Our process starts with a simple referral, either from a support coordinator, family member, or directly from the participant. We clarify the needs, confirm NDIS funding, and match the participant with the most suitable practitioner. Having a local contact means we can respond quickly and arrange appointments without long delays.

Collaborative Assessment & Planning

Understanding the whole picture is crucial. We meet with the participant, carers, family members, and other supports to learn about daily routines, strengths, and challenges. This collaboration ensures the plan reflects real-life situations, not just theoretical ideas.

Developing a Positive Behaviour Support Plan

The positive behaviour support plan is where strategies come together. It outlines specific goals, step-by-step approaches, and ways to build new skills that promote independence. Our plans always focus on the participant’s rights, dignity, and preferences.

Implementation & Training

A plan is only effective if it’s understood and applied. We guide carers, support workers, and family members through the strategies, offering practical training so they feel confident putting the plan into action.

Ongoing Monitoring & Adjustment

Progress takes time and review. We track outcomes, assess what’s working, and make adjustments where needed. This ensures the plan remains relevant as the participant’s needs change.
