[quote=Anonymous]It takes patience to find the right therapist. Rapport is important. But outcome will also depend on a lot of factors such as how motivated DC is and the diagnosis. DC1 reluctantly began therapy freshman year of college. It was slow going but her social anxiety really improved. DC2 did therapy twice over the years for a specific phobia (different each time). He saw almost immediate results and it was very short-term both times (6-8 sessions). DC3 is the toughest case. He has severe depression. It didn’t respond to almost 9 months with the first therapist and multiple meds. We changed to someone with more experience and a very different approach and saw positive results. However, I’m resigned to the fact he will not be cured. Hopefully what he is learning will decrease the frequency of his depressive episodes and keep his lows from being as severe. [/quote]
