[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 482559, member: 1169"] Tigger has been with the same youth mental health clinic since he was 6. But he has burned through tdocs. The first one lasted less than one appointment. She was actually disciplined for her mishandling of him. Next therapist was good but since Tigger wouldn't speak with him, it was more parenting support for me (that therapist loved [I]The Explosive Child [/I]so it was a great fit). Then a couple of tdocs that left the practice and the last one just didn't click with him. She was a good therapist, Tigger just didn't ever feel that connection. To her great credit, she asked Tigger and me what he'd like in a therapist and got him transferred to a different therapist. Today was the first appointment and..... [COLOR=#0000FF][B]:dance: TIGGER LOVED HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!! :dance: [/B][/COLOR] Tigger was pretty honest about what he needed to work on during therapy including telling the therapist "I don't like to talk about stuff so lots of times I will say "maybe, maybe not" and you'll have to guess" therapist said due to Tigger's lower functional level, he will share everything with me. He said for older kids he usually only shares with their permission or if they need to be protected but it was clear to him that Tigger was much younger mentally than he actual age. therapist is probably late 20s but looks about 15 himself. Tigger asked in a whisper if he was old enough to be a real therapist :rofl: [/QUOTE]
