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. Heather lives in Pasadena, Maryland, with her two sons.
Every day, more and more people are being sexually abused by their therapists. If you check the disciplinary matters page for the Maryland Board of Professional Therapist and Counselors website, you will see that month after month, year after year therapists are being temporarily suspended for sexually abusing their clients. Therapist abuse needs to be a crime!
We need your help to stand up and take a part to make this a crime. Nobody should have to go through this and know that the therapist will get away with it. Help us by getting the word out there, like our page on facebook http://www.facebook.com/lynetteslaw4maryland
