Ekaterina P. Czarnik

I am Katie Czarnik, I am passionate about neurodivergent affirming care, and LGBTQIA2S+ care. In my practice, I utilise Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), parts of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I am passionate about helping children and families find supportive environments, develop tools, manage emotions, and identify burnout and coping skills. I value incorporating integrative approaches into my care such as art, movement, music, and sensory-based activities, and dream of incorporating animal assisted therapy one day.

I am an active participant in animal-assisted interventions and teaching along side Laura Sanders.
