[quote=Anonymous]Take a look at the approach outlined in Ross Greene's work: his website, www.livesinthebalance.org gives a good overview. Get an appointment with a psychiatrist to discuss the possibility of medication. Depression often presents in young teens as anger and irritability. For my DD, Prozac was a life-saver. I will also mention a specific therapeutic approach: DBT, which combines talk therapy with training in mindfulness and distress tolerance. It really works for kids who have difficulty with emotion regulation. Big time and financial commitment, though. The two practices I know are Wake Kendall (NW DC) and Rathbone (Bethesda). Good luck and hugs.[/quote]
