About Us
At Southwest PBS, we provide compassionate, evidence-based support for individuals with autism, learning disabilities, mental health needs, and behaviours that challenge.
We work with families, carers, education providers, and community services across the South West to create practical strategies that improve quality of life, promote independence, and build positive relationships.
Our Mission
Our mission is to support individuals and the people around them to create meaningful, lasting change.
We aim to reduce behaviours that challenge by understanding the reasons behind them and focusing on proactive, positive approaches.
Our Approach
We use Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), an evidence-based framework that combines behavioural science with person-centred values.
This means we:
-
Listen carefully to your needs
-
Work collaboratively with families, staff, and professionals
-
Focus on improving quality of life, not just reducing behaviours
-
Use strategies that are practical, respectful, and sustainable
Our Experience
With extensive training and experience in autism, learning disabilities, and mental health, we bring both professional expertise and compassion to our work.
Our background includes leading Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) in care, education, and community settings — from developing behaviour support plans and delivering staff training, to overseeing multi-disciplinary teams and safeguarding responsibilities.
Based in the South West, we understand the needs of local communities and are committed to providing practical, person-centred support that makes a lasting difference.
