Can a child benefit from CT (cognitive therapy), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), REBT (rational emotive behavioral therapy), RBT ( rational behavioral therapy), or RLT (rational living therapy) I have a child who suffers from a few mental health diagnoses, and all have resulted in him have extremely low self esteem, no matter what I do. Would one of these maybe help us get to the next level?

all these are means by which to achieve the goal of a normal functioning human being. any of them could work or any combination. Study the child to know what reaches them and how to use that to your benefit.

I assume you mean the child has been properly diagnosed by mental health professionals. Therapy is a good option if the child has been diagnosed or there are problems that need diagnosed.

You have mentioned several behavioural therapy types and many people find behaviour therapy to be effective.

there are also other therapies; Existential, gestalt, psychodyanmic and many more that have had good results.

Combined methods aften work well too.

I would seek a therapist who specializes in children and go from there. it doesn't matter the typr of therapy as long as it works.

I would strongly suggest looking at energy therapy (such as EFT) to help your child. EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is a great drug free therapy that you can also learn for yourself. This means that you can do it yourself with your child without having to either take drugs or wait to see a therapist. EFT has a very high success rate with both children and mental health problems.

Initially you can see a therapist or you can download a free manual that will help you get started. You can find out more from the sites listed below.

The type of therapy doesn't matter nearly as much as a growth fostering relationship with the therapist. All of them could work, but you need a therapist that the child connects with to get to the next level using any of these techniques.

Omega 3 fatty acids are implicated in cell membrane integrity, fluidity and signaling within the brain. Omega 3 is therefore a participant in memory, learning, cognition and other brain functions. The observable effects of omega 3 fatty acids are an increase in mental focus and in recall. You might want to add Phospatidyl Serine (PS) to the Omega 3 to get maximum benefit.

maybe.. but I don't think that is what is needed.. I don't know your situation enough to say for sure.. but it sounds like he's had enough therapy.. he needs to do something for HIM! get him in karate or get him to learn an instrument or something.. but don't tell him to do it.. try to get him to say he wants to do it... maybe talk about it for a little while and after a few days ask him if he would like to do something like that... or just happen to drop by some place some time that is doing something you think he may be interested in.. and if he looks to be ask him if he'd like to join in. He's young and been threw more therapy than most adults.. he knows he's different and more therapy would just affirm that.. he needs to feel normal.
