[QUOTE="Steely, post: 58153, member: 3301"] It has been my experience that finding a good therapist for myself takes time. Sometimes the therapist and I just have not melded. In fact I had one tell me that one time - "I just don't get you, you and I do not communicate well." It happened to be what I was thinking to, so that was fine, and I moved on. I know I have had one for 5 years that is absolutely amazing! She helped me thru a divorce, past parental abuse issues, and yes, with some parenting techniques. However, she rarely brings a certain topic up, I always intiate all topics, and if we talk about my son, then I set the pace of the conversation. She does not ever try and diagnosis him, I think that is pretty unprofessional. She always has sage advice for ways for me to deal with Mat, but again, only when I ask. I would try for a couple of more sessions, if there is still this need for the therapist to muddle around in more of your kid's issues than yours, I would find a new therapist. take care [/QUOTE]
