Lots of times a good psychiatrist will have a psychologist or two they
like to work with. So ask your psychiatrist tomorrow if he would recommend
any. And if you would prefer a female to a male then ask specifically
about a female. Also realize that its sometimes best to interview a few
and see who you like.


I have three son's and my oldest it took lots of work to find a psychiatrist
that could prescribe a medication that would work for him, (16 years) And
honestly we had many psychologist but only one or two worked good
with him. And he hated it when they left. And the psychiatrist that worked
out for him, was one that talked to him. She happened to be a adolescent
boys one. But she happened to work inside a residential treatment
center that schools in INdiana placed lots of boys that couldn't work
good in schools. My son luckily was placed by the court when they could
tell he had lots of mental health help,but none had helped.


My younges son, has lucked out. He has had one psychiatrist for 6 years.
And three psychologist. But one in particular has worked with him for
or part of all 6 years. The other two are school psychologist, that the
special education department hired. One left (he also helped my oldest)
but he still needs to talk at times.


Me I talk to all that will listen, they are my psychologist. And I love all
my friends. And I will be searching for a program with psychologist, or
a group when I can afford it again. OR maybe in the next two weeks.
