Jesus christ. Thanks so much for sharing. My heart breaks sometimes
Researching these networks really is absolutely heartbreaking.
You find, very quickly, exploited vulnerable adults, psychopathic / criminal psychotherapists, psychologists, psychiatrists and others in positionos of extreme authority over the most vulnerable people in society.
You also find plenty of paedophiles hiding in plain sight and pointing at innocent people and screaming "Paedos!!"

The Bowlby Centre, a once respected insitution that promoted attachment theory (I theory I have no problem with whatsoever) has become a hotbed for satan hunting and has been exposed by Private Eye magazine and SAFF for this very reason.
The Bowlby Centre has run various events teaching police officers, social workers and mental health professionals all about satanic ritual abuse and the associated dissociative disorders.
This association with attachment theory and conspiracy theories about SRA has done a lot to discredit attachment theory to rational, skeptical persons, which is a shame IMO. Personally I would not go near any training in attachement theory, not because of the theory itself but because of how it has been used as a Trojan horse.
When a lecturer starts a lecture about SRA / DID etc. and introduces it by exploring attachment theory and the tender relationship between mother and infant in induces a collective positive transference towards the lecturer. It can even induce a trance state, a mld form of hypnosis. It is the sugar coating the pill of batshit conspiracy theories.
European Society for Trauma and Dissociation [ESTD] and the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation [ISSTD] are fascinating organisations that promote SRA conspiracy theories and the resulting diagnoses of DID and other dissocative disorders.
Wlliams says that she worked with the Clinic for Dissociative Studies for 17 years and was thus working with the clinic when she became foster mother for Pamela Edwards, one of the patients of the clinic, a very serious abuse of professional boundaries that resonated with Dr Fleur Fisher's fake "adoption" of vulnerable patient Carol Felstead before Carol's unexplained and mysterious death.
The Pottergate Centre for Dissociation and Trauma is another SRA batshit conspiracy promoting organisation that abuses vulnerable patients.
As someone who trained in psychotherapy and who has endured repeated sexual trauma and supported many vulnerable people who have experienced sexual trauma I cannot help but notice that the vulnerable patients who are "helped" by these oganisations seldom get better.
The only ones who seem to get better actually join the organisations as professionals.
If I am supporting a vulnerable person who has suffered trauma I never diminish the trauma or suggest that they "look on the bright side".
I always, always invite them to remember their inner strengths and resilience.
These therapists of concern to me alternate between recommending positive thinking (look on the bright side) and never miss an opportunity to tell survivors how vulnerable and easily triggered they are.
