Collin Ross was awarded a Uri Geller prize for his belief that he could shoot beams out of his eyeballs. So I don't know about that guy. Of course there is Breggin but I don't think he does therapy.

> Thanks---- Well, this guy isn't in practice but perhaps getting in contact with him would lead to others... Dr. Larry Simon -- he has a sporadic blog-talk show.... called "the stories we live by" you might want to take a listen to some of his programs. He's very anti-psych and was a psychologist for years and years.
would have babblemailed you but seems you don't have it turned on.... you might get some responses that way too-- through "babblemail"... from some that don't care to post, I don't care to post but wanted to help you, so here I am.....
