[quote=Anonymous]Your son sounds like mine, although mine had behavioral problems at school too. We have been seeing a licensed counselor, not a psychologist, and he loves the sessions and is mostly well behaved in them because he gets to play. But, our counselor will from time to time do things such as interrupt him or have him move to a new task (things that tend to get him upset), so that he shows his defiance and she can get him to talk about what he's feeling/thinking/should do instead. They also use the time when they are just playing to discuss emotions, she he's better able to understand what he's feeling. I have no idea if this is the best approach, or how much it is helping, but with these sessions and other things we do he is better able to manage his emotions and behavior. She also makes suggestions to us for things to try at home that might keep him from overreacting to everything. [/quote]
