What Is Behaviour Therapy for Children?
Behaviour therapy is a positive, structured way to understand and support your child’s unique needs. Challenging behaviours are often a child’s way of coping with stress, sensory overload, or communication gaps.
At daar, our approach focuses on uncovering the underlying function of the behaviour to understand why it is happening. We then work to teach new, safer skills to replace difficult behaviours, improve emotional regulation, and create supportive environments at home and school. Our ultimate goal is to empower parents with tools that work effectively in real-world situations.
How daar Delivers NDIS Behaviour Therapy in Austral
As a local NDIS-registered provider, daar ensures that therapy is personalised, goal-oriented, and compliant with NDIS standards.
Assessment & Understanding the “Why”
We take time to understand your child’s strengths, needs, routines, and triggers. This may include parent/carer interviews, observation, and reviewing existing reports (with consent). The goal is to identify what happens before a behaviour, what the behaviour communicates, and what helps your child feel safe and regulated.
Individualised Behaviour Support Plan
We develop a practical, goal-focused plan tailored to your child. It includes prevention strategies, skill-building steps, and clear response guidance to support consistency at home and school (where appropriate).
Parent/Carer Coaching (Practical, Everyday Strategies)
We provide parents and carers with clear, actionable coaching to manage high-stress moments with confidence. This includes practical strategies for morning and bedtime routines, mealtimes, school transitions, and community outings, ensuring consistent support for your child throughout the day.
Skills-Based Therapy With Your Child
Behaviour therapy also focuses on building key skills, including:
- Emotional regulation and calming tools
- Communication and requesting strategies
- Flexibility, waiting, and transition tolerance
- Social and problem-solving skills (where relevant)

Collaboration With School & Supports (With Consent)
Where helpful, we can collaborate with educators, support workers, and allied health professionals so strategies are consistent across environments and goals stay aligned.
Ongoing Monitoring & Adjustment
Progress is tracked, and strategies are refined to ensure lasting improvements.
