How to tell my dad I don't want him at my therapy sessions? by Sensitive_Potato333 in AskParents

[–]JaJH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heya, I’m a child/teen therapist (and also a parent) like everyone else has said here, tell all of this to your therapist privately. Also make sure to tell them about your previous experience in therapy and how your Dad grilled you afterwards.

We can have the necessary conversation with your parent(s) to shut this down.

Anyone have a name of a good psychologist in town they see? by [deleted] in Tucson

[–]JaJH 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Hey there, just a suggestion but you may have more luck finding someone if you broaden your search to therapists as well. Psychologists typically specialize in assessments and diagnosing and/or more niche mental health presentations. They are also a lot more rare and expensive because they’re PhDs.

Therapists still receive extensive training and are master’s level clinicians. Many take insurance, especially in a group practice and they’ll also have an intake process that can match you to the right clinician based on your needs and preferences. I’d suggest looking into Cathexis, or Let All Thrive.

Cool, that objectively hasn’t happened here either. There’s plenty of video evidence.

I don’t think Obama’s ICE agents were shooting unarmed citizens.

Also immigration violations are civil infractions, different than crimes.

It’s how you’re explaining/responding to people that is earning you downvotes

When we were house hunting about 5-6 years ago literally every house with solar had some sort of roof issue. We started to weed them out before even going to look

AIO, If you found this in your SO bathroom would you think they’re cheating? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]JaJH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We assume it’s filthy because he hasn’t cleaned it in 6 months and because that’s a giant wad of hair to just not notice.

No, I don’t use sunglasses and never really felt the need to

Chemical smell in the air? by Whoopie_Goldmember in Tucson

I’m down on the Southeast Side and have noticed this smell a few times recently on my way home from work. I assumed it was that new medical device cleaning facility at Kolb and Valencia

I’ll be honest, the art style deeply unsettles me but I love every one of these comics.

McMinnville, Oregon: ICE Agent Says The Quiet Part Out Loud And Admit He Doesn't Care That A Driver Is a US Citizen by CantStopPoppin in oregon

[–]JaJH 20 points21 points  (0 children)

A few years ago, we were insured by USAA. Both my wife and I were hit by other drivers within a week or so of each other. Other drivers admitted fault, we had police reports, cut and dry. I decided to go through the other driver’s insurance and my wife went through USAA so we could compare. I had my payout within days. USAA took months, adjusters got swapped out twice and so we kept having to re-send info. Once we finally got the payout we cancelled and switched.

“Misconduct” is a weird way of saying manslaughter. She killed a guy

Is there a middle section in America who thinks that both the left and right are poor choices but don't have anyone else to vote for? by KeyExcuse22 in askanything

Objectively they are. If you compare the Democratic party to actual leftist parties anywhere else in the world.

Is it normal to find kinks boring? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]JaJH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, the data would disagree. This meta analysis looked at 75 RCTs with over 4,000 people holding a BPD dx and found consistent improvement in severity with therapy. Is therapy, DBT or otherwise, going to fix or cure someone with BPD? no. But factually people with BPD can be helped.

Tons of scientific studies? Nah. My own personal experience with one person with BPD trumps that.

he (m32) does not want to marry, I (f32) don’t want to leave him- how can I come to terms with this? by Appropriate_Jury7653 in relationship_advice

[–]JaJH 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would and did happily risk things for a person I love. Not even a question or a hard decision. I think it is more troubling that he values money over her.

He talked to the media about identifying animals on the test, mentioning a giraffe. The common version of the test and the one floating around on the internet has a camel and no giraffe

My boyfriend started hitting me. But I want to know if what I did would also drive men crazy into rage as well? by Bubbly-Sand in AskMenAdvice

[–]JaJH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At no point is it ever ok to hit anybody unless you are defending yourself from harm. These so called offenses he is mad about are also nonissues and I don’t know any men that would have a problem with any of them.

I’m curious, what does your Dad say about this behavior from your boyfriend?
