My current qualification is in behavioral analysis. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Tilburg University in the Netherlands in 2023, specializing in adult clinical psychology.
When working with children, I consider it essential to understand both their individual developmental characteristics and the systems in which they grow and function. Alongside individual difficulties, I pay attention to the family and educational environments, as well as to how children’s experiences and needs are reflected in these settings.
My academic training and hands-on experience in an institutional setting complement each other, allowing me to deepen my knowledge and apply it in practice. I value a comprehensive clinical approach, collaboration with colleagues, regular case discussions, and professional feedback. I also have a personal affinity for the arts, which is why I am particularly interested in how creative and art therapy methods can support children’s self-expression and the therapeutic process.
I work as a behavioral analysis therapy consultant with the Kismacska, Nagymacska, and Puma groups. Before taking on this role, I volunteered with these groups for two years. I am now progressing as a trainee colleague toward developing the skills required to lead groups independently.
In addition to my clinical work, I also work in administration. Our primary goal in this role is to make families’ journeys through the institution as smooth and straightforward as possible.
Volunteering is a central part of my week. In addition to my work with the cat groups, I have volunteered at several summer camps, and I currently volunteer with the Lotilko program group. The spring exhibition is the highlight of the year. I enjoy helping with the preparations and seeing the children’s work displayed in a museum setting
