> If you really could travel, McLean Hospital in MA has an impecable reputation, AFAIK. But I think, it's *very* expensive and geared toward those who can self-pay. An upside seems to be a variety of programs geared toward different circumstances....

> My best to you in your quest, helpme,....my daughter's boyfriend is going through some similar circumstances, and the whole thing is incredibly frustrating, which as you know, can just add anxiety and hopelessness where there is already so much suffering.......grrrrr....!I would add that The Menninger Clinic is also expensive, but I don't think it or McLean is any more expensive than say, The University of Chicago or Northwestern (I am in the Chicago area too). I trained at Menninger's when it was in Topeka and when they were ranked no. 1 and/or no. 2 in the country--have fallen in the rankings since going to Houston, but they still have some good programs and doctors from the original clinic. Here is their website:
