Heather Sinclair and Lynettes Law

Heather is a victim of therapist abuse that has taken the stand to help fight this epidemic. She has suffered a lot through her life from the abuse but has learned to stand up and fight for what is right for herself and others. I am very proud to know Heather and support her in her fight against therapist abuse. I'm not sure that I would be able to do the things that Heather has done and come forward to tell my story. I encourage Heather all the time to keep moving forward and working on her efforts. With every blow she gets, she comes back stronger and tougher to fight this battle.

Heather has had a tough road while fighting this battle. Some of the curves in that road are/ were the fight for her children, a divorce, and some medical problems. She never sways off her path for long and she is right back in there fighting for all the victims of therapy abuse.

Heather keep up the good work as I do see a small light at the end of the tunnel and it will be glowing one of these days due to all the hard work and effort you have put into it.

Heather Lynette Sinclair is the founder of the Lynette’s Law for Maryland movement for therapist abuse awareness. She has worked as a freelance paralegal, a small business owner, and has spent time as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for abused and neglected children in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. She has also devoted time to the Cool Kids Campaign in Baltimore. In addition to her work with Lynette’s Law, Heather is in the process of planning a non-profit organization known as the Maryland Coalition Against Professional Abuse (MCAPA). An autobiography chronicling Heather’s abusive childhood, being homeless at 16, and the horrific events that motivated her to speak out against therapist abuse is in the works. Additionally, Heather’s traumatic events that led to this movement are inspiring a psychological thriller novel titled “The Therapist” to be released by author Mike Ricksecker in 2014.
