Support coordinators are often the first point of contact between an NDIS participant and the allied health services they need. When looking for a provider in Melbourne, it helps to find a team that's NDIS-registered, has capacity in the participant's area, and can match the specific service type to the participant's plan funding. Therapia works closely with support coordinators across Melbourne, offering Positive Behaviour Support, early intervention, clinical assessments, and other allied health supports. Our base is in Point Cook, and we're happy to discuss participant fit and availability directly.

Positive Behaviour Support is funded through the NDIS under Capacity Building: Improved Relationships, as Specialist Behavioural Intervention Support. It's designed for participants whose behaviour significantly affects their quality of life, their safety as well as the safety of people around them. A PBS practitioner works with the participant, their family, and their support team to understand the reasons behind behaviours of concern, then develops a plan focused on improving their quality of life, not just reducing behaviour. Therapia's practitioners are experienced, NDIS-registered and deliver this work in Melbourne and Victoria.

Early intervention means targeted supports delivered during the critical years of a child's development, typically before age seven, though the timing depends on the child's needs. In Melbourne, this includes developmental assessments, therapeutic programs, parent training, and behaviour support. The goal is to build foundational skills, reduce barriers to learning and participation, and support the whole family alongside the child. Therapia is based in Point Cook and delivers early intervention services in Melbourne, with a strong emphasis on evidence-based practice and active family involvement at every stage.
