TreeViewItem with ItemsSource Right-Click doesn't select the Item

<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type EntityType:FixedDevice}">
    <TextBlock Text="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, Converter={StaticResource NameConverter}}"/>
</DataTemplate>

<TreeView.ItemContainerStyle>
    <Style TargetType="TreeViewItem">
        <EventSetter Event="PreviewMouseRightButtonUp" Handler="TreeViewItem_RightClick"/>
    </Style>
</TreeView.ItemContainerStyle>
<TreeViewItem Header="Data Warehouse">
    <TreeViewItem.Items>
        <TreeViewItem Header="Platforms">
            <TreeViewItem.Items>
                <TreeViewItem>
                    <TreeViewItem.Header>
                        <TextBlock Text="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self},
                                   Path=Parent.Items.Count,
                                   StringFormat=Public ({0})}">
                        </TextBlock>
                    </TreeViewItem.Header>
                </TreeViewItem.Header>
            </TreeViewItem.Items>
        </TreeViewItem>
    </TreeViewItem.Items>
</TreeViewItem>

 private void TreeViewItem_RightClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e) {
      TreeViewItem item = sender as TreeViewItem;
      if(item != null) { item.Focus(); item.IsSelected = true; }
      e.Handled = true;
 }

How come when I right-click, it only selects the top-most node? and not the one I click? Similar for an ItemsSource, which the Item itself is not a TreeViewItem, but a DataTemplate with a TextBlock, how do I select the object in the TreeView visually?

Edit, see below for answer based on @Viv answer. I ended up having to use e.OriginalSource to retrieve the TextBlock then the TreeViewItem that the Item was in.

private void TreeViewItem_RightClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e) {
    TreeViewItem item = (e.OriginalSource as FrameworkElement).Parent as TreeViewItem;
    if(item == null) {
        item = e.Source as TreeViewItem;
        if(item == null) {
            return;
        }
    }
    item.IsSelected = true;
    e.Handled = true;
}

It's because what your looking for is e.Source and not sender

try switching your right-click handler to:

private void TreeViewItem_RightClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e) {
  TreeViewItem item = e.Source as TreeViewItem;
  if (item == null)
    return;
  // item.Focus();
  item.IsSelected = true;
  e.Handled = true;
}
