MOSAIC BRAIN ‘KINTSUGI’ NEUROPSYCHOLOGY & THERAPY PLACE PLLC

At Mosaic Brain, we celebrate each person’s lived experience and honor the richness of diverse backgrounds, brain styles, learning identities, and cultures. We all come from somewhere, and that shared journey unites us at the level of our common humanity. About Dr. Monika Malinowska I am a PSYPACT/APIT credentialed psychologist and neuropsychologist specializing in lifespan, attachment, and complex trauma. Drawing from both professional expertise and personal experience as an immigrant, I offer neurodivergence affirming, culturally sensitive, trauma-informed care for children, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, and life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based therapies, non-directive client-centered play therapy, and sand therapy, with a focus on the brain-body connection, unique to your needs. I provide both therapy and comprehensive neuropsychological assessments. Grounded in empathy and active listening, I strive to create a safe, authentic space where your unique story is honored and your needs lead the way. Whether you’re facing parenting challenges, cultural adjustment, or emotional struggles, I am here to support your healing and growth. Reach out today to take the next step. My Philosophy You may wonder: Why Kintsugi, and what does it mean? Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing shattered pottery with gold, honoring imperfections, broken attachments, and difficult moments as part of the object's history. It symbolizes resilience, growth, and finding meaning, while celebrating the uniqueness and beauty of each person’s story. Just as repaired pottery becomes stronger at its seams, this process also represents the growth of deeper roots that come from healing—building strength and wisdom through our experiences. Applied to neuropsychology and therapy, Kintsugi inspires us to embrace and heal the psychological ‘cracks’ that arise from life’s challenges, transitions, trauma, losses, and grief—whether interpersonal, cultural, or related to immigration. Through this journey, we create a stronger, more resilient, and integrated sense of self. Why Mosaic? Each of us is unique—a mosaic of different parts and experiences. At Mosaic Brain, we celebrate those parts and help you bring them together to find the meaning you may be searching for. You are not broken; while life events may have affected your trust, self-image, confidence, or sense of safety, we are here to help you gather those pieces and create a beautiful mosaic from all your experiences. We honor your uniqueness and the strong roots you’ve grown along the way.
