NDIS Positive Behaviour Support Insights | Gibelli Positive Pathways
Providing mobile PBS and Functional Behaviour Assessments to families across Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia, and Western Australia. While we support participants across multiple states, we are currently offering priority mobile capacity in Melbourne’s Western suburbs, including Melton, Werribee, and the Wyndham corridor.
We’re officially live in NSW! Gibelli Positive Pathways is bringing its rights-based, neuro-affirming behaviour support to Sydney and the Illawarra. With immediate capacity and deep expertise in the NSW RPA process, we're ready to help you thrive.
Expanding Our Reach: Gibelli Positive Pathways is Now Accepting Referrals in New South Wales
We are proud to announce that Gibelli Positive Pathways has officially crossed the border. Following our successful launches in Adelaide, Perth, and Melbourne, we are now bringing our practitioner-led, neuro-affirming Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) to the communities of New South Wales.
With immediate capacity for NDIS participants across Sydney, Western Sydney, and the Illawarra, we are ready to help families navigate the complexities of behaviour support with clinical integrity and heart.
Navigating the NSW "RPA" Landscape
NSW has a unique and rigorous approach to safeguarding. Unlike other states, New South Wales utilizes a specific Restrictive Practices Authorisation (RPA) System. At Gibelli, we understand that for many providers and families, the "RPA Portal" can feel like a maze.
Our practitioners are experts in the NSW-specific requirements, including:
RPA Panel Submissions: We don't just write plans; we lead the way in ensuring all regulated restrictive practices are properly authorized through the NSW DCJ framework.
Proactive Reduction: In line with the NSW Senior Practitioner’s goals for 2026, our focus remains on the "Least Restrictive" model—building skills that eventually make restrictions unnecessary.
Immediate Capacity Where It’s Needed Most
We recognize that the "thin markets" in certain parts of NSW have left many participants without support for too long. Gibelli is launching with immediate intake availability in:
Western Sydney & Penrith: Supporting one of Australia’s fastest-growing regions.
The Inner West & Eastern Suburbs: Mobile, home-based assessments.
Wollongong & The Illawarra: Bringing our regional outreach expertise to the South Coast.
A Neuro-Affirming Future for NSW
Our expansion into NSW isn't just about more postcodes; it’s about a different philosophy. We believe that behaviour is communication. Whether we are working with a student in a Sydney special school or an adult in Supported Independent Living (SIL), our goal is to empower the individual by modifying the environment and upskilling their support team—not "fixing" the person.
Let’s Get Started
If you are a Support Coordinator in NSW looking for a reliable, responsive, and highly-trained PBS partner, we would love to connect.
We are now accepting new referrals for immediate intake across NSW.
Tired of 6-month waitlists for Behaviour Support? Gibelli Positive Pathways has officially arrived in New South Wales. We are now offering immediate capacity for mobile, neuro-affirming PBS and Functional Behaviour Assessments across Greater Sydney, Western Sydney, and the Illawarra. Learn how our practitioner-led team is reducing wait times and delivering practical results where they matter most.
Now Servicing NSW: Why Quality PBS Matters More Than Ever in 2026
The NDIS landscape in New South Wales is changing rapidly. With new legislative reforms and a shift toward mandatory registration for SIL providers on the horizon for July 2026, the demand for high-integrity Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) has never been higher.
However, for many families in Greater Sydney and the Illawarra, "high demand" has often meant "high wait times."
At Gibelli Positive Pathways, we believe that behaviour support shouldn't be a waiting game. We are thrilled to announce that we are now delivering our practitioner-led, mobile PBS services across NSW, with immediate capacity to help participants move off waitlists and into meaningful support.
Bridging the Gap in Western Sydney and Beyond
From the rapid growth corridors of Blacktown and Oakhurst to the established communities of the Inner West and the Illawarra, we’ve seen the same challenge: families are stuck with interim plans that never move to the comprehensive stage because of practitioner shortages.
Our expansion into NSW focuses on three core pillars:
Speed to Service: We are currently bypassing the 3–6 month waitlists typical of larger firms to provide timely Functional Behaviour Assessments (FBAs).
Neuro-Affirming Practice: We don't believe in "fixing" people. Our practitioners focus on environmental adjustments and skill-building that respect a participant's identity and autonomy.
Mobile Outreach: We meet you where life happens—at home in Penrith, at school in Wollongong, or in the community in the Northern Beaches.
What the 2026 NDIS Reforms Mean for Your PBS
With the NDIA’s increased focus on "PACE" system integration and evidence-based reporting, having a practitioner who understands the current compliance framework is vital. A high-quality PBS plan is no longer just about safety; it’s a required roadmap for reducing restrictive practices and ensuring participants can live more independent, dignified lives.
