The therapy gurus today promoting it have relatively benign descriptions of it, but who knows what is going on behind closed doors? Many of these are relatively young therapists who might not even know who Jacqui Schiff was and the origins of what they are promoting. And of course in today's climate, sadly, there is no shortage of vulnerable gullible people who will be taken in.

I was austensibly being treated for a reactive depression, but was plugged in,as all were, to a system that included lots of confrontation encouragement for policing others and encouragement to help shame others for having committed some small infraction. It was anything but healthy. I was cut off from mv family, and friends had to be interviewed aND approved before I could interact with them. It became too crazy and manifestly unproductive. I got permission to go to a dental appt. alone and took my leave. It had negative repercussions for many years.

She had been kicked out of Asthma Shakti Vidyalaya, in Bangalore, India, where she had worked with Father Hank Nunn who still runs that institution for young adult schizophrenics and other psychopathologies. She was then kicked out of a Cathexis practice in Birmingham, England, and then was in an adult care facility in California until her death.ElizabethSongLoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07176852112572626832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414946164942126209.post-83345238641529197662015-06-24T05:26:22.328-04:002015-06-24T05:26:22.328-04:00Ok, thanks for the update.Ok, thanks for the update.G.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08875360501107597863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414946164942126209.post-89918319474222955482015-06-23T20:28:24.453-04:002015-06-23T20:28:24.453-04:00Jacqui Schiff passed away in the mid 1980's of...Jacqui Schiff passed away in the mid 1980's of brain cancer. Although I understand the vilification of her work and approach, it also led to milder forms of therapy incorporating the inner child and stages of child development that were prominent parts of her approach. Times were very different in the few years her reparenting therapy was popular. The 1960's and 1970's were times that such points of views could fit; no longer would people come close to accepting many of her authoritarian points of control over adults.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12710370357600265764noreply@blogger.com
