[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 133024, member: 2423"] Sometimes there is a need to see both, sometimes not. Our kids see a psychiatrist for weekly psychotherapy AND medication management. But if the psychiatrist did not do therapy, we would need to see a psychologist. What role is your psychologist playing? Who is writing the prescriptions for the medications? Concerta can exacerbate anxiety and cause depression. Your child is also on a very high dose of Concerta (higher than recommended) so you really do need to get yourself to a medication specialist (i.e., psychiatrist). [/QUOTE]
