神经肯定性积极行为支持
我们做什么以及为什么它很重要
We walk alongside neurodivergent children, their families, and support networks to build lasting change through curiosity, collaboration, and compassion. We believe behaviour is communication – and seek to understand what your child is telling us so we can respond with care. Everything we do is grounded in emotional safety, autonomy, and connection.

Janie Echt & Cheryl Bladen
积极行为支持从业者
Janie Echt and Cheryl Bladen are experienced paediatric Occupational Therapists and NDIS-endorsed Positive Behaviour Support Practitioners who bring decades of clinical experience supporting neurodivergent children, young people and their families.
Their approach is grounded in the understanding that behaviour is communication. They work alongside children, families, schools and support teams to understand the factors contributing to behaviours of concern and develop practical, proactive strategies that build skills, support regulation, strengthen relationships, and improve quality of life. This includes considering sensory processing, nervous system regulation, communication, emotional wellbeing, relationships and environmental demands.
Drawing on their extensive backgrounds in occupational therapy, trauma-informed practice, sensory processing and neurodevelopment, Janie and Cheryl develop strengths-based behaviour support plans that are practical, collaborative and tailored to each person’s unique needs. Their work is firmly grounded in neurodiversity-affirming, person-centred practice, with a focus on improving participation, increasing independence, and reducing the need for restrictive practices wherever possible.
幕后
Much of the work happens outside of sessions – assessment, documentation, visuals, and liaising with other professionals. This ensures supports are tailored, thoughtful, and aligned with your child’s context.
