Disability Counsel is a specialist consultancy providing evidence-based developmental education and positive behaviour support services across Australia. We work with the most complex presentations in disability services, where standard approaches have proven insufficient and specialist expertise becomes essential.

Our practice is built on the integration of two distinct specialist disciplines: developmental education and positive behaviour support. This dual-specialty foundation allows us to address presentations involving profound intellectual disability, autism, mental health conditions, dementia, neurodegenerative conditions, and acquired brain injury with clinical rigour and person-centric support. We don't simply manage behaviour. We understand development, capacity, and the intricate interplay between neurological conditions, environmental factors, and individual needs.

Founded and led by Dr Fiona J Davis, a practitioner with over 35 years of clinical experience and dual specialist credentials, Disability Counsel has built its reputation exclusively through professional referrals. Colleagues across Australia refer their most challenging cases to us because they know our expertise delivers outcomes when conventional methods fall short.

Additionally, we provide a comprehensive clinical supervision service to practitioners nationally, offering governance, mentoring, and quality oversight in positive behaviour support and developmental educator, including NDIS requirements. Our supervision model elevates practitioner competence through evidence-based protocols, reflective practice, and accountability structures that ensure clinical excellence and regulatory compliance.

Dr Davis has developed a four-domain model that integrates capability development and relational practice within and across PBS delivery, rather than adopting a predominantly compliance-driven approach.
