[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 400300, member: 3444"] Welcome VW (I hope this is not your real name -- if it is, you need to change it here for privacy's sake). This is a wonderful community of support with a wealth of collective knowledge and experience. I'm sorry your efforts for your son over the years have not resulted in the progress you'd hoped for. How incredibly frustrating. I would think that living in a more metropolitan area now you should be able to find a larger number of therapists who might be better qualified to address your son's issues. Have you looked at any of the teaching hospitals in your area? They tend to have better coverage in specialty diagnoses for a whole host of illnessnes, both physical and mental. For example, I googled "teaching hospitals mental health cleveland" and looked at University Hospital. On their website, I went to the search bar and typed "autism" and was given a list of providers who specialize in this disorder. You can also try "Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)" or "Conduct Disorder" -- you get the idea. If nothing else, it's worth a call to them to find out what they recommend your "next step" should be. [/QUOTE]
