Support that understands neurodivergence
Celebrating Neurodiversity.
Supporting Every Journey
The Neurodiverse Clinic and Participant Choice Services are registered businesses trading under Yamba Behaviour Support and Assessments Pty Ltd (YBSA). Together, we provide specialist, evidence-informed support for autistic and neurodivergent people across the lifespan, with a focus on improving quality of life. ur team brings advanced qualifications and extensive experience in autism, neurodivergence, behaviour support, and developmental practice. We maintain a strong working knowledge of contemporary research, regulatory requirements, and best practice frameworks, and apply this knowledge in practical, person-centred ways across home, school, and community settings. We are a small, bespoke service with a limited team of practitioners and coordinators, which allows us to work closely with each person and their support network. We recognise that learning and development are not linear, and that each person’s needs, strengths, and goals reflect their unique neurodivergent profile, working alongside individuals, families, and support teams to deliver practical, respectful support that is grounded in evidence and tailored to real-world contexts.

Specialist Behaviour Support
We specialise in autism specific Specialist Behaviour Support for autistic and neurodivergent individuals. Our plans go beyond managing behaviours of concern by starting with the nervous system and the unique neurology of autism. We consider how hyper and hypo sensitivities, interoception, and central nervous system stress responses shape regulation, communication, safety and behaviour in everyday settings. We then use National Autism Center established interventions to build practical skills, reduce distress and support alternatives to restrictive practices. The result is neuroaffirming, evidence based support that improves safety, participation and quality of life.

Key Worker Support
Our Key Worker Model provides coordinated, relationship based support for children and families during the early years. One consistent practitioner helps identify the child’s developmental profile and regulation needs, then brings the team together around assessments and evidence based interventions that build real skills. We prioritise intensive early intervention to bridge developmental gaps before primary school, rather than relying on isolated, once a week therapy sessions. Where needed, we help families pursue diagnosis and NDIS access by coordinating allied health evidence and preparing clear information to take to the paediatrician, so families do not fall through the gaps.

Functional Capacity Assessment
We specialise in Functional Capacity Assessments for autistic and neurodivergent individuals. Our reports go beyond a standard checklist. We translate day to day functioning, regulation needs, sensory and communication differences, and environmental barriers into clear evidence that supports the right NDIS funding and practical supports. We do not just deliver a report and leave families to interpret it alone. We take the time to explain what the findings mean in plain, meaningful language, so recommendations are understood, relevant and genuinely usable in everyday life.

Support Coordination
Our Support Coordination is grounded in a strong understanding of disability legislation, NDIS criteria and the realities families face on the ground. We do more than link you with providers. We help you understand your plan, your rights and what reasonable and necessary supports look like for autistic and neurodivergent individuals. We work alongside you to build a team that aligns with your goals, monitor progress and address gaps or risks early. The focus is on clarity, accountability and making sure your supports genuinely meet your needs, not just what is easiest to access.

Skill Development
We provide targeted Skill Development based on a clear understanding of developmental stage, learning profile and functional needs. We assess current skills, then create practical plans that build regulation, communication, independence and participation. Our therapists and therapy assistants are specifically trained in autism, neurodivergence and developmental differences, so families can feel confident that strategies are implemented safely and consistently. We support skill generalisation across home, community and clinic settings, helping individuals succeed through major transitions like starting school, changing schools, beginning work or moving towards living more independently.

Coming Soon
Neurofeedback
We are expanding our services to include neurofeedback and other brain based modulation supports, including transcranial direct current stimulation, known as tDCS. Neurofeedback uses EEG technology to measure brain activity and support the development of more regulated and flexible neural patterns over time. tDCS is a non invasive form of brain stimulation that applies a low level electrical current to targeted areas of the brain to support neuroplasticity and learning.
