Inclusive Therapeutics
Join our team of Behaviour Support Practitioners and help make a difference
Join Inclusive Therapeutics
At Inclusive Therapeutics, part of CBChange, Therapeutic Behaviour Support is not a sink-or-swim role. It is a supported, relational, and developmental practice held within a connected network of practitioners. We have designed a way of practising that protects practitioners as much as it supports participants.
Whether you are early in your career, transitioning from education or allied health, or an experienced Behaviour Support Practitioner, we will meet you where you are and support you to grow.
Thinking About Change, but Not Sure Yet?
You don’t need to apply to start the conversation.
If you are curious about Therapeutic Behaviour Support, wondering whether Inclusive Therapeutics might be the right fit, or considering a transition from another field, we offer confidential, no-pressure conversations.
This is not an interview. It’s a chance to explore fit, support needs, and offer next steps.
Who We're Looking For
You are an early-career practitioner who wants to learn properly – not be thrown into complexity before you are ready
You are a teacher, allied health professional, or youth worker feeling burnt out by systems that don’t support people (or staff)
You are an experienced Behaviour Support Practitioner seeking ethical practice, depth, and sustainability – not higher billables at any cost
You don’t need to arrive fully formed. You do need curiosity, care, and a willingness to reflect.
Our Development Pathway
CBChange offers a supported professional pathway, grounded in ethics, reflection, and human connection, and held within a connected therapeutic system.
The Supported Entry Pathway provides a safe, structured way to enter or grow within Behaviour Support – particularly for early-career practitioners and those working in regional areas.
Each pathway is held by an experienced practitioner acting as a Pathway Steward, providing continuity, guidance, and relational safety as practitioners grow into their role.
What is the Supported Entry Pathway?
The Supported Entry Pathway is a structured entry point into Therapeutic Behaviour Support, designed to:
reduce isolation and risk
scaffold responsibility over time
prioritise learning and reflection
ensure practitioners are supported by people and systems
It is a developmental starting point, with clear progression and ongoing support.
Phase 1
You will:
Complete structured onboarding

Build confidence in formulation, planning, and collaboration
Progress toward base practitioner expectations
Support remains active at every stage.
