About
I support children with various struggles. Most of my work focuses on selective mutism, social anxiety, or more general anxious emotions. My approach is very skill-based, often involving parents. It involves practice in my office, in school, and in the community. I teach school professionals to provide support as well, to help generalize treatment. Being that some forms of anxiety become apparent in preschool, I also work with very young children. When appropriate, I offer intensive treatment for selective mutism - sessions are longer in duration and occur more frequently - which allows goals to be achieved more quickly. I’ve worked/trained in many settings (regular school, specialized school for children with extreme behavioral/psychiatric challenges, community clinic, psychiatric hospital), all of which have shaped my approach to treatment. I'm in private practice full-time, and I understand the importance of wrap-around care to help children meet their goals. While I take my work very seriously, I’m also warm and sensitive. I’m easy to talk to and can be silly. If you'd like to hear more about the way I work and whether we may be a good fit, feel free to call or email. I look forward to hearing from you! - Dr. Iwona K.
