[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 191816, member: 1233"] The MALE therapist said he could give a girl an adult female's perspective and feedback? Is the guy smoking crack during your session?? Man, that is arrogance over the top, in my opinion. NO man can truly give a woman's input, and no woman can give a man's input. I don't care if that sounds chauvinistic. Men and women have different experiences and go through different things, along with having different brain and body chemistry. I wonder if this guy could teach a girl how to use a tampon?? (I also wonder what he would say if you asked, LOL!! - off topic, I am sure, but geezle petes, how idiotic IS this therapist??) Anyway, we ahd a psychiatrist who did counselling. We switched from him after hearing firsthand from some young women Wiz was in psychiatric hospital with that he was incredibly inappropriate with them. The stories rang true, not just like something the girls made up. They were backed up unofficially by a nurse too. So we switched. I rather liked the guy because he really held Wiz accountable for school and other issues. He pushed Wiz to work hard in school, said with Wiz' brain he owed it to himself and the rest of the world to work to his potential. When he had a longer session it was billed under a different code and covered at a different rate by insurance. We actually paid less (half as much) when he did counselling than when he just wrote scrips. When the office staff realized this they billed every session as therapy instead of medication adjustments. Not sure why, but it really helped our budget. So don't give up hope on finding a psychiatrist who does therapy!! [/QUOTE]
