I am a psychologist specialising in the assessment of children and young people
About me
In my work, it is extremely important to me to select diagnostic tests appropriate to the child’s needs, but also to analyse the patient’s existing records, and to gather reliable information from the parent during the consultation and from the child during the conversation. The moments I find most professionally rewarding are when I receive feedback from a parent that, following the implementation of recommendations by the family, nursery or school, the child’s functioning has improved. It is important to me that the child feels comfortable and safe during the session, and that the parent, upon completing the diagnostic process, has a clear understanding of their child’s needs and a range of tools to help them.
Education and experience
I graduated from the Maria Grzegorzewska Academy of Special Education in Warsaw (psychology and special education). I am qualified to administer a range of diagnostic tests, including the Stanford–Binet V, ADOS–2, the SB6/18 Specialist Battery for the Assessment of Cognitive Abilities and School Skills, and the Diagnostic Battery for Dyscalculia in pupils aged 10–16. I have completed comprehensive training in cognitive-behavioural therapy for children and young people at the CBT Centre and a one-year therapeutic placement at the Synapsis Foundation. I have led social skills training sessions and provided hand therapy.
