[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a former cutter/disorded eating/depression issues teenager, I actually think it is a good idea to let OP's kid tell her therapist about the cutting first.  My parents thought it was best to discuss my issues with the therapist before I did and I knew they folllowed up on my sessions after.  I hated how my therapist would say "so your mom told me that last week she saw some bloody tissues in the trash can.  Let's talk about that".  It made it VERY difficult to open up to the therapist because I didn't feel like anything was done on my terms.  I hated it.  The therapist did absolutely nothing to help with my issues.  I ended up finding my own support groups online and credit them with helping me figure out where my issues stemmed from and how to get better.  [/quote]

I second this, please don't get involved with the relationship between your daughter and HER therapist.  My mother did this and I never trusted the therapist and it was more harmful then if I hadn't been seeing one.[/quote]
