Not saying that's your case because I don't know anything about you. But I would think therapists should not allow parents in the room if kids are over say 6 years old. I wonder if there is a HIPAA regulation that covers this for therapy?

It's not T, it's the pdoc that I just got my first appointment with. T just talked to the pdoc and asked about him calling me to schedule an appointment. ME...not my mom. I'm not sure if we'll be in the room together or separately. I didn't even get to talk to him at all. Which is funny, considering I'M the one he's going to be treating.
This is a GREAT way for him to start our therapeutic relationship.
