[QUOTE="auntalva, post: 281606, member: 7210"] Yesterday I did talk to the agency that has the state contract for Adoptions. I spoke to a "Special Needs Adoption Services Supervisor." She recommended a local therapist who was herself a therapeutic foster parent and has lots of experience treating adopted children and some background with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) issues/training. She emailed a referral for my daughter. In addition she set me up to participate in a course (including five home visits) in Behavior Improvement, to enhance my abilities at parenting a difficult child. What amazed me even more, was the fact that she gave me her cell number, acted upon my request right away, and urged me to call her to let her know if this was working better for us. Either things have changed a lot since the state "privatized" some of these areas, or this particular Supervisor is a jewel. Anyway, I am feeling more hopeful . . . Thanks very much to everybody for your encouragement and your advice! [/QUOTE]
