    I can recommend a great child psychiatrist in Malvern. We tried the public route but it was taken so long and we were getting anywhere. Once we were past the safety net it was only $20ish per session. We saw her once together, then once me and DS, once DS alone, then 2x 2hr sessions of child development history (me & DH), then DS kinder visit, and then 2 sessions (first one we got the diagnosis & went over that), and second was giving us advice about where to head etc.

    Thanks Yael. I may hit you up for the recommendation when we move back

    Well- speech pathologist says he has a significant social communication delay. Along with other indicators she suspects (but can't diagnose obviously) that he may be on the autistic spectrum. We'll follow up with a pediatrician in the states after we move.
