Fifteen-year-old Heidi came for therapy with me at the insistence of her parents. "She’s been furious with us ever since we had her transfer to a charter school," her mother had told me over the phone when setting up the first appointment. "Her father and I were convinced she’d do better there, and we still are. But every day we hear the same complaints from her, and see the same long face. We’re hoping you can get her to see how unreasonable she’s being. I don’t think she’s even given this new school a chance."
