[QUOTE="Wonderful Family, post: 234490"] The therapy we are using for difficult child is a variation of Floortime developed by Greenspan, I believe. Most of what you can see if you Google it is focused on young kids; but the concept is pretty much the same. Teaching difficult child how to handle himself in different scenarios and recognize his emotions. The thought process in general appears to be that they never learned the levels between nothing to extreme. We've only been doing this for a few months; so we'll see how it works. I'm giving it 6 months before I think we will see much or be able to decide if it's valuable. The therapist says he's never seen a kid as wary as difficult child; very little trust with anyone. At least he "gets" difficult child. Therapy is supposed to benefit both BiPolar (BP) and austism. I haven't said much about it on the board just yet because I still not real sure where it will lead. difficult child doesn't mind seeing the therapist. [/QUOTE]
