[quote=Anonymous]I have an almost 5 year old son who has a lot of behavioral issues.  He's also an anxious child who, like another poster described in their own thread about their kid, has a lot of fears- can't be left in a room by himself, refuses to go upstairs to get something, etc.

I've been reading threads here but still feel confused about who the best person or source we should consult first.  He does have some issues at school, but the teachers/director don't seem overly concerned, and I think it's a case of he holds it together better at school than at home.  I know people mention KKI a lot and therapy there, but it's a haul for us and we both work FT out of the home.

Who do we go to first to even see if there's a problem?  We've taken classes with Rene Hackney before- I know she does in-person consults. Would someone like her be a good first step so we can see if it's a parenting issue or if she thinks there's a deeper issue going on that should be evaluated by someone else?[/quote]
