[QUOTE="bran155, post: 234251"] Hello and welcome. I agree with Ephcap. I would find a new therapist. When my daughter was 8 we brought her to therapy and our first session with this particular therapist pretty much mimicked what you went through. We tried to explain what was happening and all this woman kept telling me to do was "PUT YOUR FOOT DOWN". She would not even open her mind just a little to see that something might be wrong with difficult child, it was all me. She told me that my daughter is too spoiled. I asked her how she came to that conclusion, she replied "Look at her, her hair ribbons match her outfit, she has a little purse that matches, you can tell you spoil her" - WHAT???? I could not believe what I was hearing!!! Because my daughter's clothes matched I am the cause of her issues!!! Needless to say that was the only time we ever met with that therapist. I have had a few good ones though. It takes time to find the right fit. Do not settle for someone who you are not comfortable with. It is absolutely okay for you to be picky. You have found a wonderful place to connect with others who truly do understand what you are going through. This site has helped me a great deal. You will love it. Hang in there. :) [/QUOTE]
