The Guided Path Support is a small, specialist behaviour support practice on the southside of Brisbane. We strive to do things differently to the big providers. We support young people who are neurodivergent or have an intellectual disability when behaviours of concern are creating challenges at home and also at school — whether they have stopped attending, or they are attending and it is not going well- including suspensions or exclusion.
Our practice is neuroaffirming, young person centred, and aligned with the NDIS Commission's Positive Behaviour Support Capability Framework. We start with what a young person's behaviour is communicating, then bring families, schools and support teams together around one practical plan. It is work we are deeply passionate about.
About the role
We are seeking an experienced Behaviour Support Practitioner to join our practice. The role flexible and community based: you will work with young people and their families at home, at school and in the community, and complete your documentation from home. You set the hours you work.

- Develop interim and comprehensive behaviour support plans that families, school staff and support workers can put into practice
- Identify regulated restrictive practices and lodge plans within NDIS Commission timeframes
- Work closely with school teams, attending meetings and supporting implementation,
to achieve positive outcomes at school and at home
