[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 439695, member: 84"] I don't do the "here, now" thing. Well, let me put that differently. You can deal with "here / now" but until you've resolved the past, it's going to affect the here / now and complicate it. I've not found a single therapist who deals in the "here / now" worth a phht. If you only needed to deal with the present......odds are you don't have too much going on, which would make me wonder about their skill level since they only want to focus on clients who have no past to deal with. Know what I mean?? Everyone has a past to deal with to some degree, just some is fairly easy while others are a nitemare. And I'm sorry but I'm a firm believer in If You Don't Know Where You Came From Then How Do You Know Where You're Going? Dismissing the valid memory issue, not a good sign. Dismissing the MRI, also not a good sign. Recommending a neuropsychologist when you've already been evaled.......does the man even read your file or what? I think you've given it enough time. Doesn't sound like he's a good fit for you. While you may never find another that you mesh as well with as the last one, a bad fit is just going to get you nowhere fast. I don't do well with male tdocs. I can get along with them fine in a working environment, but not as a client. There are too many issues they just don't "get" just being male alone. [/QUOTE]
