Can anyone recommend the above for my son aged 6 in the Sussex area, or even London for someone really great, we could get there for the right person.

We are having extreme behavioural challenges with DS - long anger outbursts, rigidity, controlling behaviour. We really need to understand a bit more what's going on - possible ASD traits although definitely doesn't fit some of the ASD criteria as he can be quite social.

Really want to find a specialist in child difficult behaviour. Many thanks in advance!

I am in Sussex. The therapist helping me is not working at the moment but i could let you know when she is. Behaviours and mood issues in my two boys are due to high pyrrole. You might want to look up 'pyrrole disorder' or 'pyroluria' and see if it resonates. The symptoms are wide-ranging and not all are relevant to each case. In my experience there is also phases of difficult behaviour and phases of being fine. If you think this is relevant it is a case of finding a kinesiologist or someone to help you with zinc and B6 (and cofactors) supplementation. Let me know if you want more info.
