[quote=Anonymous]My kid has this same profile. We live in MD so I can't recommend my therapist, but what worked for us was a lot of calling around and eventually finding someone. This is his second therapist. The first was sort of what you described. This new one does part therapy with the kid and then part that includes me or my husband.  That part focuses on particular things that didn't go well during the week when we can all give our different perspectives. For some reason, this helps.  My kid is older but no games are played - we do discuss thinking of things from other perspective or a bit of role playing.

Also, we have stayed with this guy almost a year - longer than anyone else and we agreed to use him even when it doesn't always work because over time it is working - not each session but over time there is improvement.

My son is older - he is allowed to email the therapist - I love that and think that helps give him an outlet that isn't me.

The main reason we picked him was he was available. And we try to focus on goals each week, but truthfully it doesn't usually happen so much. [/quote]
