FAQ's
What is positive behaviour support?
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) is an evidence-based approach designed to improve quality of life by understanding and addressing behaviours of concern. It focuses on identifying the underlying causes of behaviours and developing personalised strategies that promote independence, improve communication and support positive outcomes. Our practitioners work collaboratively with individuals, families and support networks to create practical and sustainable behaviour support plans.
What is early childhood intervention?
Early Childhood Intervention provides specialised support for young children experiencing developmental delays or disabilities. It focuses on building essential skills in communication, social interaction, emotional regulation and everyday activities. Our team works closely with children, families and caregivers to deliver personalised strategies that encourage development, strengthen independence and support long-term wellbeing.
What is the cost?
The cost of our services depends on your individual funding arrangements, NDIS plan and the type of support required. For NDIS participants, services may be funded through relevant categories within their approved plan, subject to eligibility and available funding. Our team can help you understand your options and provide information about applicable fees before commencing services.
What are the wait times?
Wait times vary depending on the type of service and appointment availability. Online consultations can generally be arranged sooner, with appointments offered according to practitioner availability.
For mobile, in-person appointments, clients are required to complete our referral process. Once your referral has been reviewed, our team will discuss availability and the next steps for arranging your appointment.
