[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]depends on the issue i guess. we all have differing issues to "fix" or work out so I guess there is no across the board duration?[/quote]

Fair enough, but have you found it helpfuL?[/quote]

Yes and no. Yes in the sense that you hear things that she would never ever have told you. So a "third person" is good insight. But no sometimes because I think all  these talk, while supposed to get things out of the system doesn't really resolve anything. Or so it seems. [/quote]

My teen son's therapist never tells me what they talk about. 
Doesn't it teach you child things? Coping skills? Problem solving?[/quote]

So in our case, there are sessions alone and there are sessions together..... That seemed to help a little and yes, generally coping and "problem" solving skills are often discussed to help her analyse the situation and cope. If I may ask, what do you suspect is "different" with your child? [/quote]

Not sure "different " is the best word.
He has ADHD. I think his self esteem is low. He is irritable sometimes. The biggest issue is that he breaks things when he is mad. He needs to learn coping skills and self control. He is poor at verbalizing his feelings.[/quote]
