At Jade Louise, I provide respectful, neuro-affirming, and evidence-informed Behaviour Support for neurodivergent individuals of all ages. I specialise in supporting children, teens, and adults who experience behaviours of concern—always with compassion, not control.

I work collaboratively with families, carers, educators, and professionals to reduce distress, build skills, and enhance quality of life.

We don’t manage behaviour — We understand it!

Behaviour is communication, and my role is to decode it with curiosity, not correction.

Behaviour Support Information

  • What Is Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)?

    PBS is a person-centered, rights-based, and trauma-informed approach to understanding behaviours of concern. It focuses on:

    1. Promoting emotional wellbeing and everyday quality of life.

    2. Identifying unmet needs and reducing environmental stressors.

    3. Replacing behaviours of concern with effective, respectful alternatives.

    4. Minimising or eliminating the need for restrictive practices

    My services align with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission, ensuring ethical, inclusive, and evidence-informed intervention.

  • What Do Behaviour Support Practitioners Do?

    I provide individualised, values-based support through:

    1. Assessment – Observations, interviews, and data collection to explore triggers, functions, and patterns of behaviour

    2. Plan Development – We craft clear, collaborative Behaviour Support Plans that reflect the individual’s strengths, goals, and support needs

    3. Implementation – We work alongside families, support workers, and educators to model strategies, train staff, and embed tools into everyday environments

    4. Monitoring & Evaluation – We regularly review and adapt plans to reflect progress and changing needs

    5. Collaboration – We partner with psychologists, OTs, speech pathologists, support coordinators, and schools to deliver wraparound, team-based care

  • What’s in a Behaviour Support Plan (BSP)?

A Personalised Approach to Behaviour Support

A Personalised, Neuro-Affirming Approach

At Jade Louise Behaviour Support and Therapy, we understand that no two people are the same. That’s why every support plan is developed with a personalised, person-centred approach that honours each individual's unique needs, communication styles, and strengths. As an experienced practitioner, Jade works collaboratively with families, carers, and support teams to ensure strategies are not only effective but also affirming and respectful.

Reducing Harm and Restrictive Practices

We focus on reducing behaviours of concern through evidence-informed, skill-building strategies that improve safety and quality of life. Our Positive Behaviour Support Plans are designed to reduce and, where appropriate, eliminate the use of Regulated Restrictive Practices—always prioritising the least restrictive, most empowering path forward.
