Jenny often interrupts, doesn’t listen, doesn’t complete tasks, is often obstinate and threatens authority figures with little or no respect. At home, parents yell, scream, ground and then do it over again. Katie comes to therapy and will not talk or engage with her therapist. Do these clients sound familiar?
