[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an almost 5 year old son who has a lot of behavioral issues.  [b]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[/b].

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]

You could completely be describing my 7 year old. We are starting therapy in two weeks.  I pray it helps.  Good luck to you OP.[/quote]
