NDIS Positive Behaviour Support in Canberra

PBSG provides NDIS positive behaviour support across Canberra and the ACT: practical, trauma-informed support built to work in real homes, schools, workplaces, and community settings, not just on paper.

We help participants, families, support coordinators, and support teams make sense of why behaviours of concern are happening, and put clear, usable strategies in place. Our approach is dignity-first: we treat behaviour as communication and work to understand it before anything else.

Canberra is organised around its town centres, and a participant's life often sits within one of them (Belconnen, Gungahlin, Woden Valley, Tuggeranong, or Weston Creek), while school, therapy, and day activities are spread across several. We work across the inner north and inner south and out through these districts, combining in-person and remote support so that getting timely help doesn't depend on which side of the lake you live on.

Because the ACT is a small jurisdiction, the people around a participant often already know each other, and joined-up support makes a real difference. We collaborate with local schools, allied health providers, and support coordinators so that strategies stay consistent as a person moves between settings during their week, rather than resetting each time.

Canberra families also move regularly with work, including in and out of the surrounding region. Where helpful, we use remote and telehealth sessions alongside in-person visits to keep behaviour support stable through those changes, subject to current capacity.

FAQs about behaviour support in Canberra

Do you provide behaviour support in person across Canberra?

In most cases, yes, though it always depends on our capacity at the time. Whether a participant is best seen face to face or by video usually comes down to their needs and which town centre they're in. Let us know where you are in the ACT and we'll tell you what we can put in place.

Which parts of the ACT do you cover?

From the inner north and inner south out through Belconnen, Gungahlin, Woden Valley, Tuggeranong and Weston Creek, wherever a participant's home, school and activities happen to sit. Since those rarely cluster in one district, we work in person where it makes sense and pick up the rest by video so which side of the lake you're on matters less.

Can you keep behaviour support stable when an ACT family relocates with work?

This comes up a lot in Canberra, where postings and transfers move families in and out of the region. Rather than treating a move as a fresh start, we hold the same plan in place and lean on telehealth through the transition, so a change of address doesn't reset the progress a participant has made.

Do you work with schools and support coordinators in Canberra?

Yes, and in a jurisdiction this small, the people around a participant often already know one another, which helps. With consent we'll join up with their school, allied health team and support coordinator so a single, shared approach follows them through the week rather than several teams working from different scripts.
