[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 539221, member: 1550"] Almost all are general therapists. If the child (or adult) was sexually abused, find a pediatrician that also specializes in sexually abused kids. If you can't find one, call a domestic abuse or rape center and ask for a referral. I'm sure they have names. You do not want to take your sexually abused child to just any old therapist. The same would go for, say, autism. Call your closest Austism Society and ask them who works well with autistic people. There are many who have no idea that you can't have "typical" therapy with an Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) child and get results. You need one who has had a lot of experience with spectrum kids. ADHD? Try CHADD and ask them. They will know. Whatever the specifric problem is, call an organization that specializes in dealing with those types of children (or adults) and ask for referrals. That is how I find these types of professionals. Good luck :) [/QUOTE]
