We empower clients, families, and support staff with practical, evidence-based strategies that lead to lasting positive change and improved quality of life.
What is Positive Behaviour Support?
Positive Behaviour Support is an evidence-based approach used to support people who display behaviours of concern. It is also used to help families and support networks respond more effectively to individuals who display these behaviours.
The first stage of Positive Behaviour Support is to determine the cause of the challenging behaviours. Once we determine the message being conveyed by an individual's behavior, we can devise more effective ways to assist them. These tactics could involve teaching the person new skills, helping to meet their needs (such as sensory needs), modifying the person's surroundings (such as home, school, or workplace) to better suit their needs, or altering how others interact and/or communicate with them.
But what are behaviours of concern?
Behaviours of concern are persistent behaviours that affect the safety of an individual and/or the people around them. It also refers to behaviours that limit a person’s ability to access the community or go about their daily lives.
Behaviours of concern are frequently intricate, erratic, unpredictable, and challenging to manage. These behaviors typically arise when an individual's environment fails to meet their needs, which negatively affects the individual's quality of life. It's crucial to remember that a lot of behaviors that people find difficult are typically age-appropriate. For instance, a three-year-old who is unable to share or wait their turn.
My Behaviour Support Services
I work with individuals, families, support networks, education staff and other health professionals to identify why behaviours of concern are occurring and provide strategies to manage and prevent the behaviours.
In addition, I work as part of transdisciplinary therapy team, helping people living with disability address challenges and achieve their goals. My services are tailored to the unique needs of each individual and can be provided at home, at school, in our offices, in community settings or online via teletherapy.
