[QUOTE="Loving Abbey 2, post: 152464, member: 4845"] difficult child had a couple of therapists who really didn't do much. difficult child has this clinical social worker at school, for the last 4 yrs. SW does a social skills group and individual tx (for any issues not just school related ones). difficult child has really made improvements with peers. Aside from that, it shows that difficult child is actually listening to me and values what I am saying, because she frequently tells the SW mom said..... so that's what I'm going to try to do. Now difficult child NEVER says that to me in fact she usually acts annoyed when I talk with her about things. We will be starting office based family tx and individual (difficult child) home based this week. For difficult child, she needs to gain some coping skills, work out some of her anxiety, and deal with the upcoming divorce. I need some back up on parenting difficult child--this part, i am less inclined to belive that will happend. But, hey I'm going to try. I really hope all the stars line up and these therapists are a good match for us both as far as thier views, approach, personality and commitment. I'm going to keep trying until I find it. PS I'm a research kind of lady and all the research I have read shows that a combo of medication's and a good theraputic relationship is the best option. [/QUOTE]
