Behaviour Therapy Guides

These guides are written by the clinical team at daar, an NDIS-registered allied health provider delivering behaviour therapy, Positive Behaviour Support, speech pathology, occupational therapy and psychology for children, adolescents and adults across Australia. Each guide answers a question families, GPs and support coordinators ask us every week.

Guides

• Child behaviour therapy in Australia: options, models and how to choose
  Compares Positive Behaviour Support, ABA-informed behaviour therapy, PCIT, parenting programs and CBT, who each suits, how the NDIS and Medicare fund them, and how to choose a provider.
• Why behaviour therapy is hard to access in Australia, and how to start sooner
  Why waitlists are long, what an interim behaviour support plan is, and the fastest legitimate routes to start support under the NDIS.
• Positive Behaviour Support for adults under the NDIS
  What PBS looks like for adults with disability, functional behaviour assessment, restrictive practice rules, and how support coordinators refer.
• How behaviour support and speech pathology work together
  How a behaviour support practitioner and a speech pathologist work as one team, including AAC and communication-based behaviour plans.
