Behavior Support Services

Mountain Crest Counseling Services is proud to announce we are now approved to provide Functional Behavior Assessments and to write Positive Behavior Support Plans for individuals requiring this service. We have been trained to provide these supports and write plans that meet Oregon Administrative Rules and APBS standards of best practice.

Positive Behavior Supports are person centered services provided to help assess risks and increase safety around behaviors and interactions. They are designed to increase dignity and respect for the individuals serviced. Positive Behavior Supports help individuals improve relationships, support longevity in home placements, and helps individuals feel better understood. Overall, these services support an increase in quality of life for the client and their family or support team. Positive Behavior Supports can increase independence and equip individuals with skills needed to engage in their relationships, daily activities, and in the community in safe and respectful ways. Through this process, we are able to identify temporary emergency safety plans, assess functional behaviors, and ultimately develop a positive behavior support plan.
