Greetings:\n\nTry this resource.\n\nhttp://www.nationalregister.org/\n\nMake sure you choose a therapist on basis of important issues:\n\nFor example\n\n1) did you feel heard and understood?\n2) did you understand what they said to you?\n3) was what they said of value in terms of getting you to feel or see something important?\n4) ask whjat their idea of therapy is--not one answer but every therapist should be able to give you somehtign that sounds real and well thought out\n5) the chemistry should feel good after a few sessions\n\nChoose well. Choose wisely. Tharapy with the right person can be of great value.\n\nGood luck. \n\ndrjm

Gina, you don't say where you live, so I'm not sure I can help, other than to suggest you go through the closest Children's Hospital and ask.  Most children's hospitals have such specialized staff and are so wonderful at working with all types of children's problems, I feel sure they have to have some Autism specialists on staff. If you were in my area I could probably make some recommendations, since we have an Autistic child, but not knowing the area we're talking about, that's about the best I can do. Good luck!  Just do some calling around.

Hello, I have been watching your question to see if anyone replies to it with the information you need. Have you just recently moved to the Illinois area or do you just want to change doctors/therapists? I don't know the answer myself but I do know that the Universities in Chicago offer some of the best phsyciatric and psycological training in the world. Perhaps you should try your question again in a different category. Try putting your question where it will be seen by people who live in Illinois.\n\nDo this:\n\nScroll down the left side of the Home page until you find Travel, than click on it.\n\nWhen you are on the Travel page, scroll down the left side again until you find United States. Click on it.\n\nOn that page, scroll down until you find Chicago. Click on it and that will give you access to people who are from or interested in the state of Illinois. Post your question in that category. \n\nGood luck. I hope you find what you are looking for. If I can be of any more help to you, click on my picture and contact me through my profile page. My grandson who lives with me was born with Asperger's Syndrome and I know it can be critical to have people on your team who respect you. We have changed doctors, therapists and interventionists several times over the years and each move was a step forward.

There is a good one in Midlothian. It is not that far from Chicago Heights. Maybe 30 mins. His name is Dr. Erlinder. (he is located on 147th street and Pulaski straight down I57 for you) I have gone to him for years. He is VERY good. He will also not do anything that he does not think you need. Explain to him what you need and he'll help you out.\nContact me if you need more info.
