[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op have you considered working in a therapist specializing in early childhood mental health? An LCSW (clinical social worker) or psychologist that could work with you on tools to respond to him. I know you said the OT and speech are helping with that but honestly that’s not really their specialty. I’m sorry, it sounds really hard. It might be helpful to work with a regular therapist for tools besides time out etc. I can’t say it will solve anything but gives you someone to run ideas by and try to get some feedback. Make sure they are really trained in this early age. [/quote]

How would I go about finding someone like that?  I'm guessing most of those people usually work with older kids, not &lt;3 year olds.  No?[/quote]

Many do, but there are certainly people that focus on the younger age groups. I would start by posting in the special needs group your location, needs, and see if you get recommendations. I also might look for someone who is trained in parent-child interactive therapy. It might be a good fit. Here is some info on it being provided in Arlington for example: https://family.arlingtonva.us/parent-child-interactive-therapy-pcit/. I'll try to see if I can find more ways to locate a therapist trained in it later, but google is honestly the best place to start. [/quote]
