[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any recs for a therapist for a 7-year-old boy with ADHD & anxiety? He is seeing someone currently, but even though he likes spending time with the therapist, they are having a hard time getting him to do or talk about things related to his feelings and behavior. Thanks for your help![/quote] Just to be blunt, not many 7 yo want to talk about their feelings, ESPECIALLY kids with anxiety. Please read some books on the topic. Your child probably needs a play therapist so the discussions can come out while they are doing other things. It is unreasonable to expect a 7yo with ADHD and anxiety (who developmentally is at least a year behind peers) to do what you are expecting.[/quote] He has a play therapist and have been working with her for many months, but I we don't see any changes. We are looking to try a different play therapist who might be a better fit. [/quote]
