Chapter 13 - The Therapist Who Wouldn’t Sign
Pippa had seen a grief therapist after Jenna died.
Dr. Laura Kim.
Visits had decreased as Pippa adjusted.
Camilla contacted her again.
She described severe aggression.
Dr. Kim scheduled sessions.
Pippa behaved like a grieving five-year-old with some oppositional behavior.
Not a child obviously requiring residential care.
Dr. Kim wrote:

Camilla did not include that note in the Ridgehaven packet.
Instead she switched therapists.
Not illegal.
Parents change providers.
But I did not know.
The new counselor, seeing only Camilla’s history, documented:
Caregiver reports escalating behaviors resistant to outpatient strategies.
Caregiver reports.

Not independently observed.
Those three words became important later.
