[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 540552, member: 14557"] Label of the professional certainly doesn't matter. But the goal of these talks with psychiatric nurse is to map out his current situation and to discuss treatment options and help difficult child make an informed decision of the treatment. One of the treatment options (and one that psychiatrist recommended) was intensive psychotherapy. Apparently there are few trauma focused therapists on the area (both EMDR therapists and some other form of trauma focused CBTs) and that would be psychiatrists recommendation. But intensive therapy can be very hard and stressful and difficult child has to decide if he is ready and willing to start that. His other options are less intense supportive therapy or skipping therapy all together in this time. And of curse medications can be added to any of this options if needed. So the current talks with psychiatric nurse are meant to be advisory and the treatment will be a separate part. [/QUOTE]
