WHAT WE DO
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)
Our Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) services are grounded in person-centred, evidence-based practice, designed to enhance quality of life and reduce behaviours of concern. At Encourage Group, we work collaboratively with individuals, families, and support networks to understand the underlying function of behaviour and develop practical, meaningful strategies that support long-term positive outcomes.
Positive Behaviour Support is not just about reducing behaviours — it’s about building skills, increasing independence, and creating environments where individuals feel safe, understood, and supported. Our approach focuses on improving communication, emotional regulation, and daily living skills while ensuring strategies are respectful, ethical, and aligned with each person’s unique needs.
We provide Positive Behaviour Support services across Sydney and Wollongong, supporting NDIS participants, families, and multidisciplinary teams with tailored, outcomes-focused plans.
Our PBS services include:
-
Comprehensive functional behaviour assessments to identify the underlying causes and triggers of behaviour
-
Development of NDIS-compliant behaviour support plans that are practical, clear, and easy to implement
-
Capacity-building sessions for individuals, families, and support teams to ensure consistency across environments
-
Implementation coaching to support real-world application of strategies in home, school, and community settings
-
Ongoing monitoring, review, and adjustment of behaviour support plans to ensure progress and effectiveness
-
Collaborative practice with allied health professionals, educators, and support coordinators
Our approach is proactive and preventative, focusing on reducing the need for restrictive practices and promoting positive, skill-based alternatives. We prioritise dignity, inclusion, and long-term success, ensuring every individual is supported in a way that respects their autonomy and goals.
At Encourage Group, our goal is to create meaningful, practical strategies that lead to lasting change — supporting individuals to build confidence, strengthen independence, and improve overall wellbeing.
