HOW IS BEHAVIOUR SUPPORT FUNDED BY THE NDIS?
Many NDIS participants receive funding in a number of support categories in their NDIS plans. One such category is the Capacity Building Category.
Behaviour Support services are provided in the Capacity Building – Improved Relationships category. Within these categories there are a number of subcategories:
- Capacity Building – Improved Relationships:
- Specialist Behaviour Supports
- Behaviour Management Plan
There are different types of psychologists available – for instance clinical psychologists, counseling psychologists, pediatric psychologists.
This can be important in deciding which psychologists would be most suitable for your disability/condition. The NDIS assesses mental health conditions/issues as a “disability” when it is deemed that the functional capacity is “substantially reduced”.
If you are eligible under the NDIS, and have funding available – you can allocate it to psychosocial recovery coaches, psychologists, psychiatrists.

The assessment of each person’s requirements and strategies will be developed by an NDIS psychologist.
In order to get behavioral intervention, you can talk to your NDIS support coordinator or the NDIS provider. The psychologist will then conduct the assessment and decide whether you qualify for the service. The psychologist will then prepare the behavior support plan for you.
Behavioral intervention support is essential in reducing behavioral challenges, managing emotions, promoting communication and social skills, enhancing independence, encouraging community engagement, and improving quality of life for participants and their family members under the NDIS program.
