Ooh this is so hard and I feel it so deeply! First of all good for you for getting her into OT. We did this too for our deep feeling gal and I do think it helped to give us tools and more neutral verbiage. I would ask your OT if they are familiar with the We Thinkers program. Lots of good concepts they go through like why it’s important to stay with the group plan, listen with your whole body, handle disappointments, etc. and again just words that are less reprimanding them and more factual and neutral. Hang in there! Hopefully this fire will propel her in life and help her to always stand up for herself…if it doesn’t take you down in the meantime! You’re doing a great job!!!
