Delivering specialist behaviour support and therapeutic services.

NDIS Specialist Behaviour Support Intervention

Our Specialist Behaviour Support services meet complex behaviour with personalised, practical strategies. We work closely alongside individuals and families to understand what is really going on, foster positive change and help improve quality of life.
Functional Behaviour Assessments

Understanding the root causes of challenging behaviour starts with a thorough, considered assessment. It is about looking beneath the surface to understand what a person may be trying to communicate, so the support that follows is grounded in real understanding.

Every Behaviour Support Plan puts the person’s quality of life at the centre. We focus on understanding the reasons behind behaviour, building meaningful skills, reducing restrictive practices, and supporting the people around the person to respond with confidence and consistency. Our plans are practical, evidence-informed and grounded in everyday life.

We prepare the written evidence that funding and authorisation decisions rest on: funding recommendation reports, evidence reports for plan reassessments, and reports supporting specific funding requests, alongside comprehensive risk reports, reports supporting the use of restrictive practices, standardised assessment reports, and reports prepared for tribunal or review proceedings. Each report is written to the standard the receiving body expects so decision-makers have what they need.
Ongoing support and training help the people around a participant put behaviour support plans into practice with confidence. We stay alongside the support network, making sure strategies are understood and working in everyday life.
Grounded in evidence-based positive behaviour support, this approach improves quality of life and reduces the need for restrictive practices. The focus stays on the person, their strengths and creating an environment where they feel safe and genuinely supported.
Support does not stop once a plan is in place. Plans are reviewed and updated regularly to stay effective and relevant as a person’s needs change, with check-ins across the support network along the way.

NDIS Improved Daily Living Therapeutic Services

Co-Support Queensland delivers Social Work Improved Daily Living (IDL) services, offering therapeutic support that helps people build everyday skills, grow their confidence and get more out of daily life.

Building the skills needed for everyday activities is at the heart of this support. We work alongside each person to develop and strengthen functional capacity, helping them grow their independence and confidence in daily life.
Connecting with others comes more easily for some than others. We support the development of interpersonal skills to help improve social interactions and relationships, so people feel more comfortable and confident in the way they relate to those around them.
Therapeutic support to address emotional and behavioural challenges sits at the core of this service. Grounded in trust and understanding, it creates a safe space where people can work through what they are experiencing and build their wellbeing and mental health.
Understanding what is happening, and why, can be genuinely empowering. This support helps individuals and families make sense of mental health, emotional wellbeing and behaviour management, sharing practical knowledge and skills along the way.

Supports participants to develop the skills, confidence, and strategies needed to engage meaningfully in their community. This may include building social connections, accessing community activities, navigating public spaces, and increasing independence in everyday participation.

Supports participants to build confidence, autonomy, and decision-making skills so they can exercise greater choice and control in their lives. This includes developing self-advocacy, problem-solving, goal-setting, and the ability to communicate preferences and make informed decisions.

Works collaboratively with families and carers to strengthen their knowledge, skills, and confidence in supporting the participant to achieve their goals. This focuses on building sustainable strategies, promoting independence, and creating consistent, supportive environments that enhance the participant’s quality of life.

Professional Supervision

We provide supervision for social workers and behaviour support practitioners at every stage of their journey, offering a supportive space to reflect, grow your skills and feel genuinely backed in the work you do.
Complex cases and tricky practice challenges are easier to navigate with someone in your corner. We offer guidance and support to help you think through difficult situations and feel more confident in your decisions.
The self-assessment process can feel daunting to work through on your own. We support behaviour support practitioners at every step, offering clear, steady guidance to help you move through it with confidence.
Working with restrictive practices carries real responsibility. We provide specialist supervision on complex case matters and restrictive practices, helping you meet your obligations and work toward safer, less restrictive approaches.
Growing in this profession is a journey, not a destination. We support your skill development, career progression and efforts to meet professional standards, helping you identify where you want to go and how to get there.
Good practice is built on the ability to pause and reflect. We hold a dedicated space for practitioners to think honestly about their practice, experiences and professional growth, free from judgement.
No two teams work the same way. We deliver customised training shaped around your team, support workers or practice context, so the learning is relevant and genuinely useful.
Wherever you sit within the NDIS Positive Behaviour Support Capability Framework, we provide structured, consistent supervision to match. Whether you are just starting out or well established, our support stays with you at every stage.

Individualised Therapeutic Services

Our qualified therapists offer evidence-based therapeutic support to help people work through emotional, psychological and social challenges and improve their wellbeing. Not sure which funding option applies to you? Get in touch and we will help you work it out.

Evidence-based therapeutic interventions tailored to your individual needs, drawing on approaches such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), and psychoeducation. We support children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, the impacts of trauma, and other mental health challenges, with a focus on building resilience, improving wellbeing, and enhancing everyday functioning.

One-on-one sessions offer a safe, supportive and confidential space to talk things through. Whether you are navigating anxiety, low mood, grief, life transitions or the emotional impact of disability, we work with you to build understanding and practical tools for what comes next.

With a Mental Health Treatment Plan and referral from your GP, psychiatrist or paediatrician, you may be able to claim a Medicare rebate. Eligible clients can access up to ten individual sessions each calendar year, with your referring practitioner reviewing progress along the way.
Not everyone comes through Medicare, and that is completely fine. Sessions can be funded through an NDIS plan where appropriate, or arranged privately with no referral needed. We are happy to talk through the options and find the pathway that suits you.
Support should fit around your life, not the other way around. Sessions are available face-to-face across Brisbane, Moreton Bay and the Sunshine Coast, or via telehealth anywhere in Australia, whichever works best for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Positive behaviour support is a person-centred, evidence-based approach to understanding and responding to behaviours of concern. Rather than focussing on the behaviour alone, it looks at what a person may be communicating and builds practical strategies around their strengths, needs and goals. The aim is always to improve quality of life, strengthen relationships and reduce the need for restrictive practices.
Our services are available to anyone whether they are privately funded or NDIS participants with relevant funding in their plan. Specialist behaviour support falls under Capacity Building – Improved Relationships, and therapeutic services under Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living. We also offer professional supervision on a private fee-for-service basis. If you are unsure about your funding, get in touch and we will help you work it out.
We provide face-to-face services across Brisbane, Moreton Bay and the Sunshine Coast. Professional supervision and some therapeutic services are also available via telehealth for participants and practitioners anywhere in Australia.
