Virginia paying big bucks for "attachment therapy."
The Virginian-Pilot has published a detailed
investigative report about B. Bryan Post, who has
received hundreds of thousands of dollars from
government agencies for administering "attachment
therapy" and other controversial services to
disturbed children. [Sizemore B. Controversy
trails 'attachment' therapist who runs Chesapeake
center. The Virginian-Pilot, July 6, 2008]
http://hamptonroads.com/2008/07/practitioner-controversial-therapy-moves-his-base-hampton-roadsPost, who refers to himself as "Dr. Post," does
business as the the Post Institute for Family
Centered Therapy in Chesapeake, Virginia, which
his Web site describes as "an intensive in-home
counseling service, is committed to providing
therapeutically nurturing support to children and
their families." He also operates a group home
and a school in Chesapeake. He has accredited
bachelor and master degrees, but his "Ph.D." was
obtained from "Columbus University," a diploma
mill that was not accredited by the U.S.
Department of Education or approved by the State
of Oklahoma. In 2007, the Oklahoma State Board of
Licensed Social Workers obtained a consent order
under which Post agreed to modify the advertising
of his credentials.
http://www.casewatch.org/board/sw/post.shtml The agreement states that he must disclose this fact
in any Web site flyer, resumé, business card, or
telephone book in which he refers to himself as
"Dr." or Ph.D." Post is not licensed in Virginia,
but got around the law by providing services
through a licensed agency. His main web site has
a disclaimer on one page but fails to include it
throughout the rest of the site where he refers
to himself as "Ph.D." or "Dr."
Attachment therapy is a coercive treatment
that critics regard as child abuse. [Maloney S-B. Be wary of attachment
therapy. Quackwatch, July 24, 2003]
