Deniz

Positive Behaviour Support Practitioner

Deniz is a Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) Practitioner in Perth with a strong focus on person-centred, evidence-informed, and least-restrictive support. Deniz holds qualifications in counselling from a Diploma through to a Master of Counselling, bringing a strong foundation in therapeutic communication, rapport building, and understanding individual lived experience.

Deniz’s PBS practice focuses on understanding the function and context of behaviours of concern, recognising that behaviour is often influenced by communication needs, environment, relationships, routines, skills, and individual experiences. Deniz takes a collaborative approach to gathering information, identifying patterns, and developing practical strategies that address unmet needs, build skills, and support improved quality of life.

I am a Positive Behavior Support Practitioner and Counsellor with a centered and strengths-based approach. My counselling background strongly informs my practice, particularly around building trusting relationships and understanding each person’s unique experiences and needs. I am passionate about working collaboratively with individuals and their support networks to develop practical and meaningful strategies that promote wellbeing, independence, and quality of life.
