I usually post in the supporters area, so I'll just give a brief intro. Our 6 year old son has PTSD from trauma experienced in his birth family. We work with a play therapist, and recently found that in addition to his PTSD, he has some other factors, such as heavy metal toxicity.
At this point, we are not actively pursuing any additional therapy, as we are working to get the heavy metals out of his system and see if that will help him. However, his therapist did give us a list of recommended psychiatrists in case we need to go that route. One of them uses neurofeedback.
I've done some research on that subject and am confused as to how that would work for a child. It seems like it would be difficult. I'm curious as to if anyone here has experienced it for themselves and if it was helpful.
