[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 123864, member: 1550"] HI and welcome. I have a few questions. 1/ What kind of things get her into trouble? 2/ Has she ever had a neuropsychologist evaluation (this is a three to twelve hour thorough evaluation that goes beyond what other professionals do). 3/ Are there are any psychiatric or neurological problems in the family tree? Substance abuse (which is a red flag for a mood disorder). 4/ Did she ever have any delays? Can she socialize? Make eye contact? ODD rarely stands alone. It is more a description of defiant behavior that almost all the kids here have, but it's root cause is usually a bigger disorders, causing the kids to be very oppositional. If she hasn't had a neuropsychologist exam that's where I'd start. I don't personally believe a therapist is going to have the knowledge to look into all possibilities. Others will come along. Sometimes weekends are slow. [/QUOTE]
