NDIS Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) | Northern Melbourne
At Gibelli Positive Pathways, we deliver specialist Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) throughout Northern Melbourne, from the inner city to the outer northern suburbs. We are dedicated to providing NDIS participants with the tools they need to communicate effectively, build functional independence, and thrive within their local community.
Our Approach: Understanding the "Why"
Every behavior serves a purpose. At Gibelli Positive Pathways, we move beyond simply managing symptoms. We use a Functional Behavioural Assessment (FBA) to uncover the underlying communication or sensory needs of the individual. By understanding the "why," we can develop strategies that actually improve daily life rather than just providing a temporary fix.
Our Northern Melbourne team provides support that is:
Outcome-Focused: Aiming for measurable improvements in social and daily living skills.
Culturally Responsive: Respecting the diverse backgrounds of families across the North.
Proactive: Focusing on environmental changes that reduce stress and prevent triggers.
Evidence-Based: Adhering to the highest clinical standards of the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.
Why Choose Us for Northern Melbourne?
The Northern suburbs are a mix of vibrant urban hubs and established residential communities. Our mobile PBS service is designed to be flexible, meeting you in the environments where support is needed most.
Mobile Expertise: We eliminate the need for clinic visits by providing on-site support at home, school, or daycare in suburbs like Preston, Reservoir, and Essendon.
Collaborative Skill-Building: We don't just write plans; we train the support team. We work closely with families, teachers, and support workers to ensure everyone is on the same page.
Complex Support Specialist: We are experienced in supporting participants with varied needs, including autism, intellectual disability, and psychosocial disabilities.
Local Community Focus: We understand the local resources available in the North, helping participants engage more deeply with their community.
