[quote=Anonymous]I think there may be a few exceptions where you need a therapist with specific expertise. If the cut off of communication is due to addiction of parent or adult child, you need someone with specific training in addiction. Also, if there has been any physical abuse or sexual abuse, not every therapist feels comfortable with this area. Otherwise it is standard stuff, accepting what you can't control, boundaries, and guidelines if either side reaches out-keeping communication respectful. I get it though, you want someone is who is known to be fantastic and hopefully some names will come up. It's just there could be factors you don't know that require a certain area of expertise. Also, your friend really needs to take charge. She/he needs to be the one asking around-to doctors, close friends, and even just checking out bios and trying people out or even posting on DCUM. It has to come from her.[/quote]
