Question by Nat: Hi all, I am the daughter of a single parent with Aspergers and really need some help….?
Hi all, I am the daughter of a single parent with aspergers…my mum was not diagnosed with aspergers until I was 17, by which point our relationship had deteriorated so much I had moved out. I am now 24, and although we are closer now, (understanding she cannot help the way she is sometimes is helpful to me) I still suffer with self-esteem issues and self confidence problems, which in turn affect any relationship I try and have! I am trying to change this with affirmations and positive thinking but I am struggling and end up pushing most people away. If anyone can suggest any advice or where I can go to get some I’d appreciate it!.

Question by Armored Polar Bear: How do therapists bill insurance companies for couples counseling?
My boyfriend and I have been together for 8 years. We are interested in going to couples counseling in order to work on any issues we have before moving forward. We both have health insurance but with two separate insurance companies. Do therapists typically bill both insurances (meaning we need to find someone that accepts both)? Is the therapy billed differently because its more than one person being serviced, meaning that couples therapy has to be specifically covered by our insurance companies? Any information would be great, thanks!
