Behaviour Support Practitioner Services
NDIS Capacity Building – Improved Relationships
At Holistic Care Therapy, our Behaviour Support Practitioner (BSP) services support NDIS participants who experience behaviours of concern that impact their safety, wellbeing, relationships, or participation in everyday life. Our approach is person-centred, trauma-informed, and strengths-based, with a strong focus on understanding the function of behaviour and supporting meaningful, sustainable change. All Behaviour Support services are delivered in line with NDIS Practice Standards, the NDIS (Restrictive Practices and Behaviour Support) Rules, and the NDIS Code of Conduct.

Our Approach
At Holistic Care Therapy, Behaviour Support is:
Person-centred
grounded in the participant’s voice, goals, and lived experience
Strengths-based
focusing on abilities, skills, and protective factors
Trauma-informed
recognising the impact of past experiences and environments
Collaborative
working alongside families, carers, and support teams
Ethical and least-restrictive
prioritising skill development, choice, and safety
We focus on building understanding, capacity, and sustainable change — not short-term behaviour management.
Best Practice & Clinical Governance
Our Behaviour Support services operate within a strong clinical governance framework:
- All BSP work is overseen by an Advanced Behaviour Support Practitioner
- Core-level practitioners work within their approved scope and PBS suitability level
- Clear escalation pathways are in place for complex or high-risk presentations
- Restrictive practices are addressed only where necessary and always with a focus on reduction and elimination
- All plans and documentation align with NDIS Commission requirements
This ensures safe, ethical, and high-quality Behaviour Support for participants and confidence for families and Support Coordinators.

Behaviour Support at Holistic Care Therapy is delivered as part of a multidisciplinary model and may be informed by assessments and recommendations from:
- Occupational Therapists

This collaborative approach supports consistency across environments and ensures strategies are practical, integrated, and aligned with therapeutic goals.
