About Purdy Rawlinson
Hi, my name’s Purdy. I am a Board-Certified Behaviour Analyst and Advanced Level NDIS Behaviour Support Practitioner with experience in Complex Positive Behaviour Support.
I’ve practiced positive behaviour support in clinical settings, schools, homes and in the community. I have experience working with adults and children presenting with a variety of complex challenges and diagnoses.
I have a background in education, previously working in Education Support, supporting children with additional needs and high-risk behaviours. I’ve also worked in early intervention, both as a therapist providing direct clinical support to clients and also in a supervision role.
I enjoy helping participants to achieve their goals and enhance their overall wellbeing through the provision of evidence-based and person-centred positive behaviour support.
