Our family is thinking about seeing a therapist to help us all as we learn to be a family with a very gifted child. I am in the mental health field and have asked around for a therapist who works with gifted kids. The therapists I have spoken with don't seem to think that we need someone who specializes in gifted kids, just an all around good counselor. I would like to hear some thoughts about this. After all the reading that I have done about gifted kids, it seems like a lot of therapists don't know about all the AG social/emotional issues. The psychiatrists I spoke with stated that of course other psych. would know all about gifted kids. Do they?
