At Holistic Me, we know that every behaviour has a purpose. Sometimes it’s a way of communicating needs, expressing emotions, or responding to the environment. Our Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) service helps uncover those reasons and builds practical strategies so individuals can feel more confident, independent, and supported in daily life.
Whether it’s helping a child settle at school, supporting a young person with communication, or guiding an adult to develop everyday living skills, our approach is always compassionate, evidence-based, and tailored to the individual.
Positive Behaviour Support is a proven, evidence-based approach that looks beyond behaviours themselves and focuses on the whole person. Instead of reacting to challenges, we explore what triggers them and create positive, supportive strategies that encourage safer, more fulfilling lives.
At Holistic Me, PBS means:
Understanding the “why” behind behaviours
Creating personalised, practical support plans
Building skills for communication, social interaction, and independence
Supporting families and carers with clear, easy-to-follow strategies
How We Support You?
Functional Behaviour Assessment (FBA)
We begin with a Functional Behaviour Assessment to identify the underlying causes of behaviours. This helps us understand what the person is communicating and how to create lasting change.
Our FBA process focuses on:
Reducing behaviours of concern
Teaching new, positive skills
Encouraging participation in school, home, and community life
Supporting emotional wellbeing and resilience
Positive Behaviour Support Plans (PBSP)
Based on the FBA, we design a Positive Behaviour Support Plan tailored to the individual. Each plan is practical, strengths-based, and easy to apply in real-world settings.
A PBSP may include:
Adjustments to routines or environments
Visual tools and communication aids
Emotion regulation strategies
Reward and reinforcement systems
Guidance for parents, carers, and educators
Collaboration with teachers, therapists, and medical professionals
Why Families Choose Holistic Me

Families, carers, and professionals are all part of the process.

I went too see " Innovative Dietitian " with the hope someone could guide me with there knowledge on learning about food to help me with all my autoimmune diseases, inflammation and the weight i had gained since finding this all out.
I have been to so many specialist's and been told many things about my health ie - Lupus, EDS, Scleroderma, Sjogrens, Hashimotos etc etc......" Did i think anyone could help me .....NO I DID NOT AT ALL !!! That was until i went and meet Shauna & Fiona. I found hope with both of these wonderful ladies and after a couple of appointments i knew i was in the right place to receive the correct information for my health. . I feel im starting to take control back on my life that i felt id lost. The knowledge they have is UNBELIEVEABLE.

I cannot speak highly enough of the incredible service we've received from this dietitian business. The team here has done a phenomenal job assisting my primary school age child, who now thrives thanks to their guidance. We previously tried an alternate provider, which unfortunately proved to be a waste of time. However, the exceptional staff here turned things around.
Their approach is both professional and welcoming, creating a relaxed and fun atmosphere that has truly engaged my child. This supportive environment has been pivotal in achieving excellent results, allowing my child to focus on and benefit from the outcomes.
Moreover, they have been invaluable in providing recipes for meals that ensure the correct nutritional balance, addressing dietary deficiencies effectively. We are grateful for their dedication and expertise.
I highly recommend this dietitian business to anyone seeking top-notch support and results.

I found dietitian Rachel friendly and helpful. She didn't say what I must do. She advised me on research and diet to help my medical problems. I am more aware what food choices help. I have more energy now too
