| What's expected of editors? |
|---|
|
| Writing for The Psychology WIKI |
|---|
| Writing for a professional encyclopedia is not the same as writing for a newspaper, or even Wikipedia. Writing should be professional, clear, clear of bias, and the format should be professional, such as described in the APA Publication Manual, 5th Edition. Expert knowledge is valued and the goal of articles here. This is one reason we encourage editors to identify themselves and their background. |

About Me[edit | edit source]
I am a licensed mental health clinician.
I am a member of several professional associations, including the Association for the Treatment and Training in the Attachment of Children (www.ATTACh.org) and serve as chair of their Registration Committee for clinical and agency members.

As Director for the Center for Family Development (www.Center4FamilyDevelop.com) I provide evaluations and treatment for families, focusing on those with histories of early maltreatment, Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Reactive Attachment Disorder, and related conditions. I work extensively with a number of Child Welfare agencies through out the U.S., Canada, and overseas providing training, consultation, and evaluations. I am often called upon to testify as an expert witness in court proceeding regarding the evaluation and treatment of children and other mental health matters across the United States.
I am President of the Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy Institute, which certifies therapists, consultants, and trainers in this evidence-based, effective, and empirically validated treatment.

I am on the International Board of Directors of the Association for the Treatment and Training in the Attachment of Children, serve as Vice-President for clinical matters, and chair the registration committee.
