Our unique approach to Specialist Behaviour Support
We provide specialist behaviour support services to children, young people and adults. We are highly regarded for our services to those who have multiple and complex support needs, including mental health, inter-personal trauma, human relations or criminal justice issues. At Prag Consulting, you can expect:
An individualised approach:
- Practitioner/Participant matching. We believe that success is based on effective relationships. We aim to understand your individual skills, interests and match a suitable Practitioner.
- Person centred practice. Every participant and their needs and interests are different. At Prag, we don’t have a “one size fits all” approach and work with you and your supporters to focus on what’s most important to you. If it matters to you, it matters to us!
- Support how it suits you best. Our team of innovative and flexible Practitioners will provide support how it suits you best. This might be at home or school, in the workplace or community, or at our office.
Evidence based interventions focused on improving quality of life and reducing behaviours of concern:
- Relevant, targeted and meaningful assessments based on individual needs.
- A focus on positive behaviour support strategies that improve quality of life.
- The development of BSPs that are tailored, meaningful and easy to read, with strategies to support the reduction and elimination of restrictive practices.
Continued support and implementation:
- Training of supporters and implementing providers. A completed BSP is not the end of our engagement. We know that meaningful change takes time and we are with you every step of the way.
- Continued engagement to assist in monitoring and review of strategies.
An expert and highly qualified team:
- Clinical governance and oversight provided by a leadership team with over 150 years of experience across disability, mental health, child protection and justice.
