Monika Czechowicz
I am a psychologist specialising in the assessment of children and young people.
About me
In my work, I believe it is important to take an individual approach to each child – understanding their needs and difficulties, but also recognising their potential (strengths). I am keen to create a space during the session where the child can feel at ease. I ensure that the assessment takes place in an atmosphere of safety and acceptance, and that the results are communicated to parents in a clear and understandable way. I view the diagnosis not only as a source of information about the child’s functioning, but above all as a starting point for better understanding their needs and planning appropriate support.
Education and experience
I am a graduate of the University of Warsaw, where I studied education and psychology, specialising in clinical child and family psychology. I am constantly expanding my knowledge and developing my professional skills. I have completed a course in cognitive-behavioural therapy for children and young people, the Kids’ Skills training programme, as well as training in psychological assessment and counselling. I gained my professional experience whilst working in charitable organisations, a primary school and a psychological and educational counselling centre.
