Parental Alienation is real. It's Coercive Control and Psychological Control.

My kids went through Linda Gottlieb's program and the lies she told were horrific. Many years later, my kids are advocating against Linda and programs like hers. She threatens not just the children but the safe parent in order to win in court. Do your homework on her and look at not just reviews, but her own past that she doesn't tell you. She is nothing more than a licensed clinical social worker who favors Richard Gardner's theory on parental alienation. There will be no "2 parents" in the kids' lives when she's through with you. In fact, my kids after surviving years of sequestration away from the safe parent, reunited with me and do NOT have a relationship with their other parent. In fact, they want nothing to do with that parent and the abuse that Linda causes your children is just like when they are abused by the real alienating parent.

Sounds the same as me.

I had to misfortune of dealing with Linda Gottlieb and her quack theories. We had a terrible Guardian Ad Litem in our case in New Mexico who somehow found Gottlieb in New York and convinced an even worse judge here to let her on the case since GAL's basically have a free hand in doing whatever they want.

Gottlieb lied on the stand, pretended like she couldn't hear my lawyer when being cross-examined, and both kids told people she asked them leading questions and demanded they answer ONLY how they were told to answer.

Gottlieb is a scam artist who closed down her company Turning Points for Families, and now operated under For Healthy Children.

The link to "professionals within the mental health community" purportedly supporting this quackery alienation/reunification scam is to a 2012 article written by Gottlieb herself. In 2024 there continues to be no credible science supporting this Kids-For-Cash systemic Family Court occurrence. Gottleib, et al are NOT trained or experienced in ANY therapy relating to children, families or any human. This crime needs to be exposed at the deepest roots it's taken and immediately stop before anymore children (and bonded parents) suffer irreparable harm.
