Specialist behaviour support can be hard to find in the Territory. Therapy Scope provides NDIS positive behaviour support in Darwin and [surrounding areas], with planned visits and strong telehealth support between them.
We write behaviour support plans for authorisation under the NDIS (Authorisations) Act 2019, and work closely with implementing providers on monitoring and reporting.
A functional behaviour assessment covering observation, interviews and data review, to understand why behaviours of concern happen and what helps.
A short-term plan focused on safety, completed within one month of engagement when regulated restrictive practices are in use.
A full positive behaviour support plan with proactive strategies, skill-building, environmental changes and response strategies, completed within six months of engagement.
Clear, realistic strategies to reduce and eliminate restrictive practices, written to meet NDIS Commission and NT requirements.
Practical training for families, support workers, SIL and day program teams so the plan works in everyday life.
Reviews at least every 12 months, or sooner when needs, living arrangements or support teams change.
Video check-ins, team meetings, data review and coaching between in-person visits across Northern Territory.
[e.g. Darwin, Palmerston, Litchfield]
[e.g. In Darwin every [x] weeks]
We’re based in Melbourne, VIC, so in-person work in NT is planned around these visits, and telehealth keeps support going in between.
We support children, young people and adults with disability whose behaviours of concern affect their safety, relationships or participation, including people with autism, intellectual disability and complex support needs. We work alongside families, guardians, support coordinators, SIL providers, day programs and schools.
After a referral, the participant or their representative signs a service agreement. If regulated restrictive practices are in use, an interim behaviour support plan is completed within one month of engagement and a comprehensive plan within six months. We combine in-person visits in Darwin with telehealth so the work keeps moving between trips.
Send us a referral with consent. We confirm funding and the service agreement, start with telehealth where it helps, and schedule the first Darwin visit for observation and assessment.
An interim plan is due within one month of engagement and a comprehensive plan within six months. NT interim authorisations last up to six months.
Remote work needs careful planning with the participant, family and local providers. Talk to us about what's possible.
No. We don't charge travel costs to your plan for our interstate visits.
An NDIS Worker Screening Check. [Add NT Working with Children Clearance status before publishing.]
Behaviour support is delivered under the registration of a registered NDIS provider approved for specialist positive behaviour support (registration group 0110). Your service agreement and invoices will be with that provider, and they manage complaints and incident reporting. We'll confirm the provider's details with you before you sign anything. Therapy Scope coordinates your enquiry, and our practitioner works with you directly.
We do not charge travel time, flights or accommodation for interstate visits to your NDIS plan.

Please keep it brief. Don’t include diagnoses, incident details or other sensitive information in this form. We’ll collect what’s needed securely once we’ve spoken with you and have consent.
