Psychotherapy for children Warsaw

What is child and adolescent psychotherapy in Warsaw?

Child and adolescent psychotherapy in Warsaw is a form of support or treatment that helps children and adolescents better cope with emotions, relationship difficulties and challenges in daily functioning. We work on the basis of conversation, a shared understanding of the problem and a gradual introduction of changes that make a real difference in the child's life.

In our work, we mainly use the cognitive-behavioral approach (CBT), which focuses on the relationship between thoughts, emotions and behavior. As a result, the child learns to better understand his or her reactions and develops specific strategies for dealing with difficult situations.

Psychotherapy can be helpful in situations such as anxiety, lowered mood, difficulties in peer relationships, problems at school or life changes. Each meeting is tailored to the age and needs of the child, and we adjust the pace of work individually.

Meetings are held in a calm, safe atmosphere and are tailored to the child's age. Depending on needs, they can take the form of conversation, working on specific situations or exercises to help better understand emotions and reactions.

The goal of therapy is not only to reduce difficulties, but also to develop skills that help the child function better in everyday life.

Psychotherapy in English and experience working with international families

We provide psychotherapy in English and regularly work with families from different countries. We have experience working with children functioning in different educational and cultural systems, so we can better adapt the way we work and communicate to their situation.

We understand that a child's difficulties often arise in the context of a change of country, language or environment. In such situations, it is particularly important to consider the broader context of the child's functioning, not just individual symptoms.

If necessary, we prepare documentation in English and assist in transferring information to the school, specialists or insurer.

CBT psychotherapy vs. other approaches

In our work with children and adolescents, we mainly use the cognitive-behavioral approach (CBT). This is a research-based method that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, emotions and behavior and on making concrete changes in daily functioning.

Unlike some more long-term or less structured approaches, CBT focuses on clearly defined goals and working on current difficulties. As a result, the child learns specific ways of coping - ones that can be applied at school, home or in relationships with others.

Different therapeutic approaches can be helpful in different situations, so choosing a form of support always depends on your child's needs. If you are unsure whether psychotherapy will be appropriate, we can assess this together and suggest next steps.
