[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another perspective on therapy... I would put her back into therapy. I would tell the therapist the exact lies that she's telling and see if that can be addressed in therapy. There are going to be a lot of boring, no progress sessions. But the child should know that her BS is being called out. No one believes the lies. She should not discontinue therapy until/unless she starts being real.

I would tell her that she doesn't have to talk to you, but she has to talk to someone. She doesn't have to like that therapist... but she has to continue with someone.
 
I'm sorry but it sounds like your child is in crisis and is lashing out in destructive ways. [/quote]
OP already randomly cancelled therapy because she refused to let her child have privacy (listening through the walls, demanding to be in sessions). OP is the problem here. Child likely has autism or OCD, but in the family dynamic, is the “identified patient.”[/quote]
You are assuming OP's family is dysfunctional.  We don't know if it is or isn't.  But at age 10-11 therapy - including for Autism or OCD - should include the parents.  OP was right to cancel with this therapist as it was counterproductive.  [/quote]

I seriously doubt OP’s account is correct that the therapist “refused”
family therapy. We have had many therapists and they are always willing to speak to the parents privately. And OP apparently has made no attempt in the intervening time to find a new therapist even though she sees signs of OCD. [/quote]

OP here , I am on hold.  the therapist REFUSED to have parents in the sessions, twice.  Flat out refused.  What makes you think I have made no attempt to find a new therapist????? Please stop assuming.  [/quote]

She refused because she wanted to have private sessions with your daughter, which is completely appropriate at that age. [/quote]

(And now we are in 2023 three years later and you are just now looking for therapists? It’s actually not that hard to access a private practice.)[/quote]
