Corruption in Professional Organizations, with Rick McCarthy, MFT

California therapist Rick McCarthy pushes back on his professional organization's promotion of "gender affirming care" for adolescents. Here is the link to the original CAMFT article Rick referenced in this conversation: https://secure.viewer.zmags.com/publication/a40eb33c#/a40eb33c/8 *note: In the video I mentioned posting Rick's correspondence with CAMFT to Substack for those of you who are interested in reading it. I will update this video description once I've done so- thank you for your patience! Rick McCarthy, MFT, has been in practice for over 40 years, working with a very diverse population, including individuals, adults, adolescents, and couples with a wide variety of concerns and complex challenges. Years ago, Rick was fortunate to receive some helpful data quantifying his clinical outcomes while contracted with Pacificare Behavioral Health. He has twice been the recipient of the Lampert award from Pacificare which ranked his therapeutic effectiveness in the top 1% of over 10,000 participating therapists. His clinical experience, teaching, and consulting with the Board of Behavioral Sciences in designing the California State Board exams for the MFT license, has helped him stay on the leading edge of effective theory and techniques.
