About Me

Hello, I am Akın Öznazik. As a psychologist specializing in child psychology, I support children's healthy development and work alongside families to help them unlock their potential.

My Philosophy

I believe every child has unique potential. By supporting children's natural developmental processes, I help them discover their strengths and develop coping skills. I believe family support is critical for a child's healthy development, which is why I work in close collaboration with families.

In my treatment process, I focus not only on addressing current problems but also on building foundational skills that support the child's long-term development. Every child is different, and therefore every treatment plan should be customized to the child's individual needs.

My Experience in Child Psychology

After completing my undergraduate degree in psychology, I began working as a child psychologist at Bir Tebessüm Rehabilitation Center. During this time, I worked intensively with children experiencing ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, behavioral issues, and emotional regulation difficulties. I specialized particularly in early intervention programs and family-focused treatment approaches.

During my clinical practice, I had the opportunity to work with children aged 3-16 with diverse developmental needs. This experience deepened my understanding of the complexities of child development and strengthened my ability to develop treatment plans tailored to each child's unique needs.

My Areas of Expertise

I have developed deep expertise in child psychology, particularly in ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, behavioral issues, and emotional regulation difficulties. I have also gained extensive experience in parent training and family counseling.

In my work, I adopt a holistic approach that considers not only the child's individual needs but also the family system and environmental factors. This perspective enables me to achieve more effective and lasting results in the treatment process.
