Often your therapist works with your psychiatrist. A therapist isn't qualified to diagnose as far as I know and don't make much impact. My lawyer didn't even use my therapists notes when I filed for disability. Also, a major help is having a Dr or psych state that you're unable to work. If you've never worked I'm not sure what they go off. The phone call I got was no big deal - just basic questions. I have ssdi and they went back 3 yrs on medical paperwork and 15 yrs on employment. I don't think I would have been able to do it without a lawyer. They take 25% of your back pay. Mine was approved in 6 mo but the economy was better.
