The “therapy” detailed here is psychological abuse. No wonder so many ppl don’t trust mental health professionals. The harm perpetrated by the psychologists in these cases is 100x worse than the impact of any TikTok therapy influencer. insider.com
This article is haunting as it brings back horrible instances of minor pt harm I was witness to when I worked with children at a county funded program for 5 yrs. Wherever in the US a child needs mental health care, esp when it involves multiple systems (medical, courts),
the assumption that a child will get quality therapy and med management from competent professionals who are not ideologically captured by some pet theory…….is a RISKY assumption. It’s heartbreaking.
Lastly, to clarify, I do think parental alienation exists. But there’s a whole industry devoted to the belief that any time a child of divorce makes an abuse allegation, it’s because of PA. It’s the indiscriminate application that is the problem. And the methods are abuse.
