[QUOTE="idohope, post: 325617, member: 7722"] Update: We will continue with the same therapist at the new practice. I will be become the identified patient, which is not ideal but I think is valid. I meet with therapist more often than difficult child. It truly is family therapy, we are all stressed by the behaviors. How did I accomplish this? I called and tried to book out future appointments and after getting bounced a bit spoke to the clinical director who said that therapist would be leaving practice but would not discuss any contractual information with me saying it was not relevant to decisions about difficult children care. Would not answer me when I asked if difficult child would be able to continue with therapist. I said repeatedly that it was clear that what was in difficult children best interest was to continue with therapist and to not interupt that relationship. Clinical director said she was not familiar with difficult children specific case and could not comment but would get back to me. I relayed all this to difficult children regular doctor who said he would write a letter stating that staying with therapist would be in best interest of his patient difficult child. Two weeks after initial conversation with clinical director I heard from therapist that we could continue to see her at new practice. I am very relieved and so glad that I did not accept what they tried to do here. Thank you all for the support. I come to this board and it gives me the strength to get back out there and do what needs to be done. [/QUOTE]
