Ewa Myzik-Lasek
I am a child and adolescent psychologist.
About me
In my work as a psychologist and therapist, I greatly value human connection. The most important thing for me is to build a positive relationship based on acceptance and adapting to the other person’s needs. I derive a great deal of satisfaction from watching my clients develop their potential and from creating the conditions that enable them to acquire new skills and find reasons to smile. It is equally important to me to support parents in the difficult challenge of bringing up children. I am very keen to help parents develop a sense of competence and belief in their own abilities. Empathy and experience help me to support them in finding their way to the solutions they need.
Education and experience
I graduated in psychology from the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Warsaw, specialising in clinical child psychology and psychological support for children and young people with disabilities. I have been working with children for 19 years, drawing on the standards and techniques of applied behaviour analysis, in particular the Verbal Behaviour approach. I hold a permanent licence as a behavioural therapist issued by the PLTB (Polish Licence for Behavioural Therapists), licence number: 202/T/2017. Whilst working in educational institutions, I obtained qualifications in general education and special needs education for children with intellectual disabilities, and I hold a diploma in pre-school and early years education. I have completed a variety of training courses on developing children’s social skills, managing emotions and realising their potential. I am currently developing my expertise and skills by training in the therapeutic approach known as Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT).
