Does anyone know where I could find a reliable psychologist? I'm 12 years old, and I've been having some intrusive thoughts lately, and I'm worried that they might actually happen. Please help. Thank you.
EDIT: Thanks for all the support!

The phone number for the psychiatry department at Lurie Children's Hospital is 1-800-543-7362 (1-800-KIDS-DOC). They should be able to get you in touch with the right person. You did a great thing by asking for help, it can be very hard to do even for adults and shows a great deal of maturity.
Anyone know of a good pediatric neurologist affiliated w a good hospital in Illinois

You most likey are going to be in that exact same boat if you go with a new nuro. Try calling Lurie and see if any are seeing any new patients for neurology in Dec. 800-kids doc (1.800.543.7362 ) Registration will tell you right away if anyone has Dec appts they will ask about your referral. Nuro has about 18 on site docs, but doesn't guarantee an appt soon. We had a referral from a 2 Lurie docs for our new nuro and had to wait 2 months. It doesn't hurt to call.
