Hi,
I'm less than impressed. I thought I was going to meet with a psychologist/psychiatrist. Instead, it was a therapist. Without a diagnosis from a psychiatric., my son is not eligible for the numerous services that PA offers to help children. So, I have to find someone who can diagnose difficult child officially in some way.
I was also put off by the way she immediately started pushing drugs, and talked about behavioral therapy as something "difficult". I have nothing against trying drugs after we ascertain that behavior modifications do not work, but I didn't like the immediate push.
