LMHC providers

[omly]

I have been working on a spreadsheet that Roger gave me that will eventually go to buxom_bey. The things that have struck me in this project:

• The person who lists psychopharmacology as their treatment method but only works with children and adolescents scares me.
  
• How can it be financially feasible to run a practice that only does grief/bereavement for adolescents? (I found 2 in MA just for this provider.) Isn't that too constricted a field?
  
• It is interesting that HIV/AIDS is such a common thing that LMHC professions are listing as a subspecialty.
  
• I think that the LMHC professions who deal with gay/lesbian concerns with children/adolescents are incredibly cool.

*update* Just finished. Woot!

I dunno. I mean adolescents? I think enough people die from car crashes like family and friends to take care of a practice, as well as friends/siblings/what have you of kids that commit suicide. Too many kids are way confused at that age. Heck in Junior high alone I knew 2 people who committed suicide and one who got hit head on by a van while biking because the driver wasn't paying attention.

So I talked to a therapist and she said absolutely there was enough call for this kind of therapist. In fact there are not nearly enough people who do this sort of thing. Weird huh?
