  Well, I’m not throwing anyone under the bus. I’m literally quoting what others are saying. Here are a few more articles: https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2018/03/08/meet-world-reknowned-author-center-trauma-program-controversy/izjBaELj9iFgdLxPRGSdgI/story.html https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2018/03/08/meet-world-rekn... https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2018/03/07/allegations-employee-mistreatment-roil-renowned-trauma-center/sWW13agQDY9B9A1rt9eqnK/story.html https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2018/03/07/allegations-emp... https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/famous-trauma-therapist-fired-allegedly-traumatizing-staff-214559444.html https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/famous-trauma-therapist-fire... https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/famed-trauma-therapist-responds-allegations-bullying-outrageous-story-213600039.html https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/famed-trauma-therapist-respo... The reason I mentioned the controversy around Bessel van der Kolk and The Trauma Center that he co-founded (and was fired from) is that his book is basically required reading for many people entering the mental health field. I strongly believe people deserve the right to know about what happened so they can form their own opinions.
