[quote=Anonymous]If you've been to 3 different pediatricians, you know how much communication style and personality varies and how the affects your kid's responses. With talk therapy, that's a mich bigger issue than basic physical diagnostics and developmental monitoring. There are many kinds of therapy. I think, especially for kids, skill development like speech therapy and OT is generally more commonly helpful than "Woody Allen movie" style neurosis talk therapy and rumination. IDs aren't mentally mature enough to work through CBT type things. They pick up phrases and patterns from therapy conversations, and parrot them, and then parents take what they say far too seriously. The mind and body are linked. Sometimes what your minds needs is not to retreat inward and try to abstractly fix itself, but to engage in outward activity that puts your mind at ease. [/quote]
