Molly's Therapist

Knocked her off her rocker.  I'm pretty sure she hates him.  tee hee. :)

Oh my... as I told some of my other friends who also have RAD (or similar) children... I think I have a new best friend.  (I believe I also described him as "an artist", "masterful", "brilliant" and "awesome.")

This therapist KNOWS Reactive Attachment Disorder.  He's worked with a ton of these kids (including his OWN SON) and knows their tricks, their games, and how to throw them off-guard enough to get to their real thoughts and feelings.  I left flabbergasted and with a perma-grin.  (And Molly was silent the entire ride home. Even fell asleep at one point, I think... that kind of openness had to have been exhausting.)

THANK YOU for your prayers.  I really think we found the right guy. 

Now pray we can find the money to pay him!  Pray that the insurance company would approve a gap exception - he's out of network, there's no attachment therapists IN network, and they don't understand the difference.  Pray that adoption support will give us the funds to cover the counseling - since the state's handling of their case caused much of this to begin with. 

I can hardly wait for next week.

God has led you to this therapist, and I know that He will make the finances miraculously work out - Hope is a wonderful feeling, isn't it?
