Colorado has been hiding this dirty secret far too long. And alas, this horrid practice is still going on in the state, with county DHSs sending children to Evergreen. Some activists are trying to stop it but not getting very far. Please contact us. <br /> <br />contact@childrenintherapy.org <br /><br />Thanks for writing here.

My family had family therapy with Foster Cline, and my parents had z-therapy with Foster. I guess I was around 12 years old, and it was a horror. I had many sessions, the longest being around 12 hours. The trauma did make me stronger, and taught me how to conform, and how to survive. sboaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17103106322978667563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743746633913926150.post-63480118853596396332012-03-25T17:11:14.808-04:002012-03-25T17:11:14.808-04:00Jeff-- thanks for your comments-- as you suggested...Jeff-- thanks for your comments-- as you suggested, I didn't publish them.<br /><br />You see why I set priorities about which problem needs solving first.<br /><br />Best regards,<br />JeanJean Mercerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619393019771381980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743746633913926150.post-74966044685777059862012-03-22T13:54:30.093-04:002012-03-22T13:54:30.093-04:00Yes, that would have been interesting.

A TV crew's filming at an Attachment Therapy center in Utah years ago demonstrated the dangers, with therapists pushing their elbows into the abdomen of bound children and parents lying on top of small children, which could only make it difficult for them to breathe. Heaven knows what was done to children when the cameras weren't around.LindaRosaRNhttp://www.scienceinmedicine.org/fellows/Rosa.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743746633913926150.post-27710868841874029492012-03-22T08:03:54.486-04:002012-03-22T08:03:54.486-04:00I wish the one person had said more about why he t...I wish the one person had said more about why he thought a painful and dangerous treatment was effective... especially about why he thought it was dangerous.Jean Mercerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619393019771381980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743746633913926150.post-31285736209577779512012-03-22T01:00:50.491-04:002012-03-22T01:00:50.491-04:00I wonder if the two Utah people were children or a...I wonder if the two Utah people were children or adults when they went through Holding Therapy.<br /><br />Some parents submit to HT when their children are being treated. Even Nancy Thomas claims to have gone through couples Holding Therapy with her husband. <br /><br />I think its a totally different matter if an adult chooses to undergo HT, although it's still quackery.LindaRosaRNhttp://www.scienceinmedicine.org/fellows/Rosa.htmlnoreply@blogger.com
