I’m wondering if I should have my child switch therapists. Maybe you all would have a good thought on what I should do. My daughter is getting therapy for anxiety issues stemming from her bio dad who is mentally abusing her and we’re dealing with all that in court. But I’ve been taking her to therapy since June and the therapist hasn’t addressed anything yet. She barely asks my kid questions and mostly talks to me because my daughter doesn’t talk a lot there. My daughter just ends up playing with toys most of the time as the therapist talks to me. I just want her to go work with my daughter directly and make some progress with these more difficult topics. My daughter will talk to me about them openly and is very easily able to identify how she feels but her therapist doesn’t get that side out of her. I feel like I should maybe switch therapists for her but scared she won’t like the next one or something. I don’t know really what to do. I don’t know what expectations to have from therapists for kids I guess since I didn’t get therapy as a child.
