Dr. Csilla Besenyei – WIP

child and adolescent psychiatrist, psychotherapist candidate, couple and family therapist, integrativechild therapist, psychodrama assistant, CBT therapist in training

I graduated from Semmelweis University in Budapest in 2006. During my residency years, I worked at the 1st Department of Pediatrics. I then worked for two years at the Budapest Early Development Center, and for the past 10 years I have been working at the Mental Health Outpatient Clinic of Heim Pál Children’s Hospital.

I also participate as an instructor in the autism spectrum disorder-related training programs of the Budapest Early Development Center.

Method-specific trainings:
Couple and Family Therapist – Hungarian Family Therapy Association
Integrative Child Therapist – MAKOMP Association
Psychodrama Assistant – Hungarian Psychodrama Association
CBT Therapist – VIKOTE, Center for Cognitive and Schema Therapy

Other trainings:

“The Laws of COOL Living” social skills development training, Vadaskert Foundation
Effective Strategies for Managing Behavioral Problems in Preschool and Early School-Age Children in Peer Communities, Vadaskert Foundation

ADOS training – Autism Foundation
Using the CAT-kit – FSZK

I have gained self-awareness experience through psychodrama, schema therapy, and autogenic training.

My main professional interest lies in neurodevelopmental disorders, particularly autism spectrum disorder and ADHD, but families may also turn to me with confidence in the case of other child psychiatric conditions, such as anxiety, depression, panic disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. In my child psychiatric work, I can provide support in diagnostics, medication adjustment, follow-up care, and complex therapeutic treatment. I also support parents through parent consultations when they face difficulties related to their children’s challenges.

In my child psychiatric practice, I approach cases from a therapeutic perspective. I primarily work within a systemic framework, while also applying CBT tools and Rogerian principles in the treatment of child psychiatric cases.

I am raising three adolescent children with my husband.

I also work with clients in English.
