What is NDIS Positive Behaviour Support?
Understanding the framework that helps improve quality of life
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) is an evidence-based approach that aims to improve a person’s quality of life and reduce challenging behaviours through understanding the reasons behind those behaviours and addressing underlying needs.
Under the NDIS, PBS involves developing personalized strategies that focus on:
- Understanding the purpose and triggers of challenging behaviours
- Creating supportive environments that promote positive behaviour
- Teaching new skills and alternative behaviours
- Developing comprehensive behaviour support plans

Answers to common questions about NDIS behaviour support services
General behaviour support involves basic strategies to address less complex behaviours, while specialist behaviour support is provided by practitioners with advanced training to address more complex or high-risk behaviours. Specialist support often involves comprehensive assessment, development of detailed behaviour support plans, and may include restrictive practices if necessary and approved.
Behaviour support is typically funded under the Capacity Building budget in your NDIS plan, specifically in the “Improved Relationships” category. The amount of funding depends on the complexity of your support needs and the type of services required. Your NDIS planner or support coordinator can help ensure you have appropriate funding allocated.
The development of a comprehensive behaviour support plan typically takes 4-6 weeks. This includes initial assessment, functional behaviour analysis, consultation with the individual and their support network, and development of strategies. More complex situations may take longer, while less complex needs might be addressed more quickly.
Yes, many aspects of behaviour support can be provided via telehealth, including assessments, plan development, and ongoing coaching. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals in remote areas or those who prefer to receive support in their own environment. However, some situations may still require in-person assessment and support, which we can arrange as needed.
Our behaviour support practitioners have relevant qualifications in psychology, occupational therapy, speech pathology, or other allied health fields, along with specialized training in positive behaviour support. All our practitioners are registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission and maintain ongoing professional development in behaviour support practices.
