[QUOTE="Janna, post: 255986, member: 2737"] The last agency we dealt with, their rules were to see psychiatrist for medications, you MUST have therapy with therapist as well. Their idea behind this rule is because if your child is on psychiatric medications, they need counseling or some type of therapy behind that. Really, it's a good thought. medications, alone, never "cure" or really fix anything. Especially with kids when the medications constantly change, don't work, puberty hits, etc. I never had a problem with it. Maybe therapist can help to figure out what's triggering some of the anxiety, help difficult child learn how to deal with that. psychiatrists don't typically take the time to do all that, yanno? Glad you got the referral. [/QUOTE]
