Please watch the acompanying emotionally moving video with this petition and sign it. It's shocking that therapist abuse is real and in many states (this one Maryland) there is no background check conducted for therapists. In this particular case, the therapist was already a convicted felon, then took advantage of his patient. 

Please read:

"I am a victim of therapist abuse. My former therapist was able to obtain two licenses and still currently has his licenses and he is a convicted felon!! He spent 4 years in prison in P.A. If therapists were required to pass a back ground check, he would have never been able to become a therapist and hurt me. Even people applying for employment at Wal-Mart have to pass a background check. Why aren't therapists, some who work with children, not required to pass one? If you check the disciplinary matters page for the Maryland Board of Professional Therapist and Counselors website, you will see that month after month, year after year therapists are being temporaily suspended for sexually abusing their clients. Please stop this!!"

This April has shaped up to become my busiest month since October when I toured out east, including the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum, and signed at a number of different local Halloween events. I'll be speaking, signing, and/or being interviewed  at a number of different venues, in multiple states, and over multiple mediums. The kickoff of this event is this Wednesday when I will appear on Leitreanna Brown's television show "Family Spirit" on BTVN. In addition to talking about my books and a wild experience at the 101 Ranch, Lei will be giving away blessed Native American jewelry!
