Supporting Autistic Burnout in Adolescents
A Behaviour Support Perspective within the NDIS Framework

Emily Pennell | Conference Practice Paper | 2026

This scholarly practice paper explores autistic burnout in adolescents through a Positive Behaviour Support perspective within the NDIS framework. Drawing on contemporary literature and practice-based clinical reflection across 14 de-identified adolescent cases, it considers how changes in behaviour may reflect changes in capacity, cumulative load and environmental demands.
