[QUOTE="alldone, post: 351550, member: 5349"] Thank you, klmno. The big reason we've held off on a neuropsychologist evaluation is that I'd heard it was so expensive and difficult child doesn't seem to have difficulties in any areas other than with her mood. It's anxiety, irritability, and a very, very short fuse. She just doesn't seem able to sort of regulate her emotions, if that makes sense. Well, she can hold it together at school-then we suffer when she gets home. I'm just so discouraged right now that I'm trying to figure out what else we can do. I loved her last therapist, but we can't afford her anymore (doesn't take our new insurance, can't pay out of pocket even with her sliding scale) and difficult child refused to see her anymore (didn't like her). I feel like my husband and I have done a lot of work trying to modify our parenting, but while doing so has helped some I don't think that continuing to look at our parenting with a microscope is going to help. I feel like now it's time to have daughter work on her issues with the therapist, which she's doing, but I question how seriously the therapist is taking us. So I don't know how good a fit this one is. Which stinks. Our options are limited with this new insurance, and waiting lists in our area are long. I'm tired just thinking about finding a new therapist. Also, it's only been a couple of months. Rome wasn't built in a day, I guess. [/QUOTE]
