Complaint Review: Dr. Sarah Rainer

If you are a parent who is being alienated from your child, avoid this person at all costs.

She is unfortunately among the all too many people in this field who practice outside the bounds of their professional competence when it comes to identifying and addressing child psychological abuse. Since she is a PhD, it appears as though she is unwilling to take in any information that might conflict with what she already believes to be true. She also has a poor sense of understanding the dynamics involved in alienation (like letting the alienating parent take our child to every appointment) and how it works. She is among those who allow this type of abuse to thrive.

If you are in a position where you have a choice, I urge you to do more research and find someone who recognizes what child psychological abuse is and how to deal with it.
