[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GET A THERAPIST!! Why is everyone's first recommendation a neuro psych eval? Holy shit that is going to be months down the road and isnt' in everyone's budget. AND it's over [b]pathologizing[/b] her kid. MAYBE it's ADHD, or maybe he's just hitting puberty. Get thee to a therapist asap. [/quote] A therapist isn't going to make a sustaining change if a child has anxiety, ADHD, and/or executive functioning issues b/c these issues are impacting [b]school[/b] on a regular basis. They will need an IEP. This is why the SN forum shouldn't be in the recent topics. And, I'm not sure why you think a child therapist is a heck of a lot cheaper. Many aren't covered by insurance and weekly visits, plus the intake evaluation? At least know what you're treating.[/quote]
