Specialist Positive Behaviour Support
Mindfullink delivers evidence-informed Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) to participants presenting with complex behavioural needs. Our approach is structured, analytical and grounded in contemporary behavioural science.
We work across home, school, community and organisational environments to assess, design and implement interventions that build long-term capacity and reduce reliance on reactive or restrictive practices.

Explore our range of services designed to help you achieve mental wellness and personal growth. Our evidence-based therapies are tailored to your unique needs, promoting self-awareness and positive change. With PBS in business, we offer individual therapy, group sessions, and workshops to support you on your journey to a healthier mind.
Functional Behaviour Assessment
We conduct comprehensive Functional Behaviour Assessments to identify:
-
Behavioural topographies
-
Maintaining variables and environmental contingencies
-
Skill deficits and communication functions
-
Risk factors across ecological systems
Our assessments integrate direct observation, stakeholder interviews, structured data collection and behavioural analysis to ensure intervention plans are precise and clinically defensible.
We develop detailed, NDIS-compliant Behaviour Support Plans that include:
-
Function-based proactive strategies
-
Skill acquisition programming
-
Environmental modification recommendations
-
Risk mitigation protocols
-
Crisis response procedures (where required)
-
Restrictive practice reduction frameworks
Plans are written to meet regulatory standards while remaining practical for implementation teams.
Capacity Building and Systems Collaboration
Sustainable behaviour change requires systemic alignment.
We provide structured training and consultation for:
-
Families and carers
-
Schools and educational settings
-
Support workers
-
Multidisciplinary teams
Our focus is on building capability within environments so that behavioural improvements are maintained beyond direct practitioner involvement.
Restrictive Practice Oversight
For participants subject to regulated restrictive practices, we provide:
-
Behavioural justification and clinical oversight
-
Data-driven reduction pathways
-
Capacity-building strategies to reduce long-term reliance
-
Collaboration with authorised decision-makers and oversight bodies
Our approach prioritises dignity, human rights and gradual reduction through skill development.
Ongoing Review and Risk Montioring
Behaviour is dynamic and context-dependent.
We implement:
-
Structured risk review processes
-
Data-informed plan revisions
-
Six-month CBSP reviews
-
Environmental risk reassessments
-
Incident trend analysis
This ensures clinical integrity and continuous improvement.
Equine Assisted Learning
Coming soon to MindfulLink is the opportunity to engage with Equine Assisted Learning either through your NDIS PBS funding or through Core funding. This involves engagement with Sally, who through the PBS assessment will design a curriculum of development and learning. Sessions will be tailored to the individual and focus on developing skills like effective replacement behaviour, communication, emotional recognition and regulation and many more areas dependent on client need. This service can be accessed through your PBS relationships funding or through Core for early childhood.
Sally also offers this for non NDIS clients on a fee basis. Please contact us for more information.
Early Years Support
MindfulLink is able to support clients from very early age. This may be doing a brief assessment of needs for an NDIS plan through to full assessment and therapies. This process can be tailored to the individual need and either be a 10 hour recommendation report, through to a brief assessment. Please contact us to discuss your needs or make a referral above.
