If S's Dr. is thinking about another therapist, which is the direction I would go, then perhaps a very slow intro to new therapist, even co doctors, if possible.

Not a mental health expert, but a teacher, who has a really soft spot for the hard kids smile. Any change in routine will throw a kid with issues off. Kudos to your son for handling the break up relatively well. Kudos to you.

Sure S deserves a dad who knows what's going on, but he has a mother and that is a hell of a lot than a lot of kids have. smile
