A good child psychologist

[RonJeremy]

Private?? That's disgusting jumping the NHS queue and getting someone at a time and place to suit you. It's an outrage that you are assisting a two tier Health service.

The NHS is private now, so what's the difference?

[Marx]

Go to the GP and get a referral to CAMHS or MAST.

When did you last pay to see your GP?

[Timeh]

There are a few routes camhs/Dr?

 

But for private:

 

Is it for assessment or therapy?

 

http://www.bps.org.uk This is the British psychological society

Or for therapy try bacp which is British association for counselling and psychotherapy

Or therapy bapt or ptuk for play therapy

Or ukcp psychotherapy lists

Great stuff. Thanks for that, Its for an assessment initially and then potentially some therapy as well.

I recommend Maria at http://www.collinsdonnelly.co.uk/page.php?domain_name=collinsdonnelly.co.uk&viewpage=Profile

 

It's certainly worth reading her profile and that of Kate which is lower down the page to see the breadth of their experience. Maybe ask if you could have an initial chat with one of them. I've only known adults that have worked with Maria (and they had good results) so i'm recommending on this rather than direct knowledge of young people

 

Thank you. That link was very informative and ill be passing her details on. Thank you again.

Why would you not want a GP involvement?

 

Why is that even important?

if i were you i'd go through your Drs. then there is a secure paper trail & documentation. We tried a private psycologist mentioned on this thread & I definately would not recommend them for a child.

 

Could you expand a little on that please? If you prefer you can pm me? I promise it will be in the strictest confidence.

Maybe because it would leave a paper trail that might affect future career options
