I’m so very glad to have found Craig Childress ; what an education ( since 2013 ) as I learned of the epidemic of family estrangement and Child Psychological Abuse and as deep as I feared .
He’s also Pisces , I think we are the same age so it’s a very authentic soul who stands up for children as his life’s work .
I am very grateful to have been blessed with his being and every second he has spent on his then our edification and offer resolutions 💯❤️🙌
I made it into the office to get some work done.
I’m an Internet psychologist – howdy – the first of my kind out in the wild. There’s a few Internet psychologists still in early development in the lab, but I’m the first to arrive into online clinical practice.
Wheee…. Let’s see what we have here… YouTube? Excellent.
It can be dangerous here unless you know what your doing. I know what I’m doing, that’s why I’m here.
I live in your computer – hi, how ya doin’? I can be in any office anywhere on the planet… which has implications… so I actually don’t need a real-world office like my current office space here on my island because I’m going to use the one where you are.
I’m the second opinion doctor. I’m not the presiding doctor. That’s the one where you are. They have what’s called “duty of care” obligations and they’re licensed in your jurisdiction – for accountability.
I’m a second opinion doctor. I don’t have duty of care obligations. I’m selected for my role as the second opinion doctor because of the specialized expertise that I bring.
I collaborate with the local area professional on the assessment and diagnosis. That’s my role – I’m second opinion consultation as described by the National Academy of Sciences in Improving Diagnosis in Healthcare
From Improving Diagnosis in Healthcare: “Clinicians may refer to or consult with other clinicians (formally or informally) to seek additional expertise about a patient’s health problem. The consult may help to confirm or reject the working diagnosis or may provide information on potential treatment options. If a patient’s health problem is outside a clinician’s area of expertise, he or she can refer the patient to a clinician who holds more suitable expertise. Clinicians can also recommend that the patient seek a second opinion from another clinician to verify their impressions of an uncertain diagnosis or if they believe that this would be helpful to the patient.”
That’s my role. Nobody else does what I do. Nobody else can do what I do. I’ve been evolved by the pathology to a role – the necessary role to cure the pathology.
I’m a doctor. That’s what I do. I cure pathology – I don’t become part of it.
Well now that I’ve made it into the office, I need to get some work done. I’m starting another line-by-line on a mental health report.
An attorney in the matter believes that the application of established knowledge from clinical psychology to a set of information will assist the court in its decision-making surrounding the child.
The attorney has provided me with a set of information for my review. I am beginning the process of applying the established knowledge from clinical psychology to the information… line… by… line.
I will then generate a Summary & Analysis report based on my line-by-line review (which becomes Appendix 1 to my Summary & Analysis report).
Where’s this next one from? Sometimes it’s hard to keep track, they come from anywhere.
I’d estimate 30% of my consults are international and 70% are from the U.S. – Colorado, Florida, and California well ahead of the general pack of states. The other states are more evenly distributed in my practice history.
Something’s happening in Colorado. I have zero idea what it is. But CO had that ProPublica nonsense with Harman and Gottlieb, and Colorado can’t be receiving this much information from me without something happening.
What? Don’t know… don’t want to know. I have a role. I do my role. The outcomes take care of themselves.
Florida too. Florida seems more parent-driven. I don’t want to know what’s happening in Florida either… yet… I want to be brought into situations properly for the Court’s service.
I have two clients – the child and the Court. I’m in the courts as a testifying expert. I need to remain mindful of my role. You take care of you. I’ll take care of me.
You know where I am. I’m here. In your computer. Hi.
When you need me to be in some other computer… I can be there too. Hi.
It’s time we start thinking about setting the odds – which U.S. state will switch paradigms first? I’d put the odds at 60-40 US over Canada (although it might be 60/40 in Canada’s direction – Canada’s curious to predict for reasons).
England’s in the mix as the long-shot dark horse. England’s interesting. They could flip to solutions in a moment… or not. If you want to make excellent money on a reasonable long-shot, England. More rational money though is elsewhere – actually, if you want the bookie’s pick – go small and out of the way.
The odds-on favorite for Europe is Scandinavia – although the domain remains in dispute. Germany has reasonable odds, followed by France, with Spain trailing the Western European realm
My actual money’s not with them. I like more exotic picks with better odds. Eastern Europe. South Africa. Ireland. I’m betting the Field – if any of those countries lead the change to solution… I win.
If anyone else is first to lead… you win. I’ll take the Field of Eastern Europe, South Africa, and Ireland and 10-to-1 odds…
Or I’ll take Canada for the international flipping and you take all of Europe and Asia… and give me 2-to-1 odds – or 60-40 straight up US v. Canada as the first to flip paradigms.
I’ve got incoming work so I need to get work outgoing from me. This incoming is international.
I have an anti-viral program on my computer called the Internet that removes the jet-lag attached to the pdf files.
Well that’s convenient. Hey, did you know about this? Did you know we have the Internet and can be anywhere on the planet?
Sweet.
