I may have found a shrink. It’s been suggested in the past that I seek a psychologist who has experience with and knowledge of gifted individuals— but such people are a bit hard to come by. Nonetheless, I tracked down somebody who is about an hour away from me. That’s a bit of a haul, but not too terrible— especially if useful— but that doc was able to also give me a referral to somebody who is significantly closer.
I’ve spoken to the first doc, and think he seems pretty good. I await a call back from the second doc. Then it’s just a case of choosing one.
So, one way or the other, I am hopeful.
I found some other counselors:
