It is like dog training isn’t it? Stays with the animal forever - they follow it without even realizing, Leone did it to us saying “a good therapist gets in your head and helps you make decisions when you leave” except he was practicing self serving Attack Therapy without our consent and was delusional about his methods being “healthy” so him taking it upon himself to program us like dogs was unethical - what he taught us was harmful and psychopathic.
Leone covertly applied Attack Therapy to his clients without their consent and ran his own cult using cult methods. He had taken it upon himself to act outside of the scope of his psychologist’s license, violated human and professional ethics with brash entitlement and casually engaged in emotional abuse of his clients some of whom he kept around for 20 years, then made fun of them and demeaned them as “adult day care patients who had nothing else to do during the day than to see him.” He kept stringing them along with provo... read more
Yes he as playing mind games to push you into group saying people outside of group aren’t worth your time, aren’t loving correctly, have incorrect decision and lifestyle and that the people in the group are therefore better people and more worth your time; he literally said “Your friend X is a jerk, why waste time talking about him?” even though he barely knew the person. It was like he was literally building his own little cult with patients being his followers who idolised him while brainwashing them to push away their fri... read more
He would try to sabotage people's college career by pressuring them away from their college program to attend his group because he wanted them in his group - as younger attractive people attracted others to join, and he did at the harm to the person who thought he had their best interest in mind.
Yes, he breaks you down and then teaches you sadism and manipulation as a way to get through life, you end up with narcissism which you like and confuse for maturity and end up worshipping him, coincidentally he gaslights you by calling you the narcissist to confuse you. It’s very very devious and he plays a lot of mind games, which is something you don’t expect from a licensed therapist. And he repeats the same tricks with one patient after another. Some leave others stay, he tries to get them to stay for years. The longer ... read more
The effect of being exposed to Leon’s personality and therapy attempts was: A. You lash out against people who are nice to you B. You isolate from your support network C. You pick fights with people in your support network out of misguided frustration D. You jump into relationships with abusers and then trigger them to abuse you to get a thrill and think it’s normal (you should distance from abusers and avoid triggering them to protect yourself). E. You start trying to change people’s personalities and trigger them (which is... read more
The worst part of being expose to Leon as a therapist, is that you copy his abusive psychopathic sadistic interaction style and he leaves you emotionally crippled and brainwashed with his nastiness for years and decades after being exposed to him.
Yea, we eventually concluded the guy seems like a rare sadist (think type of people who torture animals for pleasure) and molester-type who doesn’t respect his patients and pretends to be nice to fit into society; essentially groom and use-abuse pattern.
He remarked that “he will be sadistic if you let him,..and that is how he can tell if a patient is being pathetic”. You would tell him how he is bad, and he would mock you and reply with how you are the problem.
