[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are they getting therapies if no neuropsyche diagnosis yet?[/quote]

Obviously through early evaluation or cpse. They diagnosis need for services from the standpoint of capability to access the school curriculum. They do not diagnose disorders.

OP, how old is your child? You’re never too young for a developmental pediatrician or a pediatric neurologist. There are resources they may recommend including parent child training. You are not alone. It’s very hard. [b]Do you have a therapist for yourself?[/b][/quote]

No, and this is specifically why I wrote this thread. Are there types of therapists who specialize in helping parents develop the tools and strategies to adjust to SN kids?

TBH, going to a childless therapist in their mid-30s with no experience/specialization in these issues doesn't seem very helpful. Telling me to "have more patience" will make me want to chuck my iPad out the window.

Yes there are therapists that specialize in helping parents of SN kids. Sometimes the provider that diagnosed your child will be able to give you a list of providers. If not do a search for "therapists for parents of special needs" If you can't find a local therapist you might be able to find one that does telehealth meetings.[/quote]
