Multicap Tasmania is experienced in providing clinical services and behaviour supports to our clients. We are excited to provide these services that enhance the lives of those we support.

behaviour support practitioners

Multicap Tasmania continues to build its range of services to be responsive to the needs of our growing client base across North and North West Tasmania.

Multicap Tasmania has two Behaviour Support Practitioners whose role includes the development and implementation of behavioural support plans, with our team serving both the Launceston and North West areas of the state.

This service is available to both internal Multicap Tasmania clients as well as clients from other service providers, who have the need for a Behaviour Support Plan as identified in their NDIS plan.

Fintan McCullough

Behaviour Support Practitioner

Fintan has been working as a Positive Behaviour Support Practitioner at Multicap Tasmania since the beginning of 2021 after completing his Bachelor of Psychological Science and working as a Disability Support Worker for four years. Since that time he has been able to establish positive working relationships with a broad and diverse client base spanning from Latrobe to Smithton and everywhere between - working with young, middle aged, and mature aged clients alike.

Fintan’s passion lies in the process of discovering the unique historical, biological, psychological, and social factors relevant to each Client, and using that knowledge to tailor a Behaviour Support Plan to the individual’s unique situation, needs, and goals. Fintan hopes to continue to utilise a multidisciplinary approach to achieve improvement in his clients’ quality of life, independence and functional capacity via research-informed environmental and behavioural strategies.
