Cat, I'm a firm believer in one important question. Do you support gay parents? No sense sending him to someone who's going to work against your life style. Find out what they believe in, before you waste time and money. My therapist for my children totally supported me. When I went in to talk with her, I came right out and said I'm gay. What is your opinion about that? We discussed a lot that day, especially after I felt comfortable with her. She also helped with the EX-H situation. She convinced him to come in and talk with her, and wanted to see the children in the same room with him. When he left, she said the children were not as close to him as they were to me. We moved forward from there and everything worked out well.
Just my opinion....not looking for one to turn your son into pro gay, but, certainly not one who's going to feed him bad information and fuel the hurting that's already there with his father.
still in prayer for your son,
hugs
