Child psychologist/psychiatrist in BR
Posted on 10/12/21 at 10:47 am

Need a rec for a child psychologist/psychiatrist in BR area that is skilled at getting through to very hard to reach kids. The kid has some pathological behaviors that need to be addressed such as lying, manipulation, lack of empathy, no remorse, etc and it’s starting to cause more issues with the teenage years approaching. The parents have brought them to no less than 4 different councilors over the past 5+years, the most recent one for over 2 years, with a zero percent success rate with any of them getting the kid to open up. From what I’m told, the conversations between the kid and counselor are superficial, with the kid only answering enough to keep the counselor from asking more questions or appear not to have shut down. The kid is very smart and not on spectrum. The parents are good folks and their other kids don’t have similar issues.
TL/DR: friend’s parents are worried their kid may be a psychopath and hoping the right person can get through to/help with emotional development. Previous 4 counselors, which came highly recommended by others, have had zero success so I’m reaching out to the OT to help a brother out.

Let’s hope not. They don’t hurt animals or have any proclivity to harming others for fun.

I thought so too, but my 7 year old has ADD and ODD and the belt wasn't working. shite I was tired of whipping him. Counselor said it wasn't working and was making things worse. Tried his approach for a few months and it was good until I had to test his arse last night.

Not joking. Those behaviors are found in two classes of people. Criminals and ultra-successful CEO types. Hope for the latter. They may have the next Elon Musk on their hands.

You're not helping matters by calling him "they"

Can anything be done if they are? That's scary stuff when it's your kid.

For shits and giggles, scared straight. If they scare the inmates...the only other option is try and reset the kids brain with Ibogaine.

Guess how I can tell they have never raised a teenaged son.
Therapy goes nowhere because there isn't anything there. Tell the parents to get off the internet and spend some quality time connecting with him until the neighborhood cats start to come up missing

Probably so. From what I gather, there’s not much there in regards to
serious misbehavior other than the lying part. They frequently lie about little things, like completing chores or leaving things laying around or the details of an event than happened. For example:
Parent: did you pick up your room?
Kid: yes
Parent: *checks room and it’s not picked up* You said you picked up your room and it hadn’t been.
Kid: oh, I did that yesterday and just got confused
Parent: can you pick up your glass off the counter?
Kid: that’s not my glass
Parent: you were the only person here, it has milk in it and you have a milk mustache
Kid: I didn't put it there
Parents: the other kids said you pushed your brother down while playing, what happened? *multiple people, not just the kids, saw what happened*
Kid: I didn’t push him, he tripped and is just blaming it on me.
Parents: that’s not true, other people saw what happened.
Kid: they’re just trying to get me in trouble.

The kid is really smart and hopefully goes the CEO route. Without intervention, shark life.
