Healthy eating declared a sign of serious psychological disorder

[Bo]

I have tried looking for others articles regarding her work, this is what I have come up with so far;




(Date: Saturday, 21 August, 2004)
Article 1. Dangers of pro-anorexia websites

Director of the UK National Centre for Eating Disorders Deanne Jade said: "Some of these websites are downright dangerous.

"They are run by people with serious agendas, including those who are anti therapists, believing that 'everyone is out there to make us fat'.

article 2. So which is the right diet for you?

Dieting has become part of our spiritual life, and trying to find the right one is akin to the hunt for the holy grail,' said Deanne Jade, principal of the Surrey-based National Centre for Eating Disorders.

None of these articles mention her as a psychologist, and a I can't find a CV either..

Yep, I merged the topics - the search engine is your friend, SeekingtheTruth... ;)

 

[SeekingtheTruth]

Whoops! Yes, the search engine and I should get acquainted before I post next time! :)

I found the following contact information for Deanne Jade _http://www.northtyneside.gov.uk/serviceitem.shtml?p_ID=955. Maybe it's a bit naive but perhaps one of us could email her or give her a call and ask?

What are you proposing she be asked? And, what response would you be expecting?

 

[Vulcan59]

After searching for some hours, couldn't find anything about her qualifications. So I wrote to the British Psychological Society, The Royal Society of Medicine and the British Medical Association to ascertain her qualifications. If and when I get a reply from any one of them, I'll post it here.

Hope she is not like this person here who

.......believed "in her head" she was a London university accredited PhD, a court was told today.

 

[SeekingtheTruth]

I thought one of us could ask for her educational background and why, in any of the articles where her name is mentioned, she is referred to as either a psychologist or the Principal,Founder, or CEO of The National Centre for Eating Disorders, but doesn't bother to mention what school(s) she attended. I assume her response, if she gives any at all, would probably skirt around the issue. It may not be much help in finding out background specific information about her, but it would provide us with data about the way she responds to such questions and how she operates. Maybe it would be a waste of time and I'm just not looking at it in the right way at the moment.

I think, like any person, receiving a call from a stranger inquiring about her professional accreditation would cause her to be a little defensive. And I'm not sure what, if any, could be gained from doing that. It's not like you can affirm whether she actually has a phD by asking her, so what's the point?

 

[SeekingtheTruth]

I agree with you Heimdalir that one couldn't affirm whether or not she really does have a PhD if she told someone so but if she said from which school she had received her PhD etc., I thought it might be of some help. If she actually had a PhD it probably would have at least been mentioned in one of the many articles where her name was mentioned so you're probably right in saying, "What's the point?". I should have thought it through more thoroughly.

Found this as well from the BeeLeaf Institute website:

(http:_www.beeleaf.com/testimonials.html)

"Excellent personally - some major learnings and shifts. Professionally I've already started using the material and talking to clients and colleagues differently. It brought my previous NLP Master's training to life. Dynamic use of NLP."

Deanne Jade, Director of National Centre for Eating Disorders

About BeeLeaf Institute (http:_www.beeleaf.com/about-us.html)

BeeLeaf was established in 1993 by Hypno-Psychotherapist and Trainer, Pamela Gawler-Wright, to establish a unifying identity for her therapy and teaching work. Pamela has designed and delivered seminars, workshops and training courses since 1986 for many local authorities and established Training Organisations, across the length and breadth of the British Isles. BeeLeaf is a response to the request of many of her clients, trainees and supervisees. People hungered for creative, practical and challenging Psychotherapy training in a learning environment that honoured in practice the presuppositions of Erickson, Satir, Perls, Bateson and Systemic NLP. Therefore, an independent training organisation was created, that grounded its work in the ethical and therapeutic application of Neuro-Linguistic Psychotherapy and Ericksonian Hypno- Psychotherapy. This approach has since blossomed into the modality of Contemporary Psychotherapy.

Over the years, BeeLeaf has become a team of talented professionals with decades of collective experience in provision of psychotherapy and training, who have joined Pamela in this successful endeavour. Gill Turner, psychologist and Consultant, joined BeeLeaf in 1997 and assisted in forming the Foundation Certificate in Neuro-Linguistic Psychotherapy. The expansion of activity required the input of a new Managing Director and in 1999 Mandy-Jane Herring, an experienced Educationalist and Manager, lead BeeLeaf in another evolutionary leap. Not long after this Julia Lloyd, Graphic Designer joined as a Non-Executive Director. BeeLeaf’s training team is complemented by several other experienced and talented professionals in the field, all of whom bring something very special to the whole training experience.

Cutting edge training methods that are focussed on the learning process of the trainee, supporting the individual’s unique journey of exploration and adaptation, are a great part in what has caused BeeLeaf’s reputation and popularity to spread so far, so quickly. BeeLeaf is a Training and Accrediting Member of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy, Representative Member within the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC), Organisational Member of BACP, Founder Member of The Professional Guild of NLP and Corporate Member of the Global Board of NLP. We enjoy the attendance of international delegates, from a wide range of cultural, social and professional backgrounds, who all contribute to what makes the BeeLeaf experience so special.

The maturation of BeeLeaf Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy has been consolidated into the Advanced Diploma in Contemporary Psychotherapy, a 4 year modular training, that provides successful students with eligibility for UKCP Registration.

BeeLeaf officially set up its Members Community in 2004, named the Community for Contemporary Psychotherapy. This greatly involves Members in the provision of practice groups, social gatherings, website and discussion area, newsletter and Members Committee Meetings.

In 2008 BeeLeaf became a Not-For-Profit Organisation.

[...Info on NLP...]

Related to the NLP reference, there's this interesting comment posted at BeeLeaf (Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy) under the heading "What people say about us":

"Excellent personally - some major learnings and shifts. Professionally I've already started using the material and talking to clients and colleagues differently. It brought my previous NLP Master's training to life. Dynamic use of NLP."
Deanne Jade, Director of National Centre for Eating Disorders

While no CV or educational qualifications have surfaced, the search has yielded some interesting observations:

1. After tons of search results and a profile created by Zoominfo using 97 online sources, not a single mention was made of a title or qualifications.
_http://www.zoominfo.com/Search/PersonDetail.aspx?PersonID=151975552

2. Amazing consistency with all the references to her:
...the principal at [or Founder of] the National Centre for Eating Disorders.
Example:_http://mmurphyassociates.com/2007/01/22/are-you-an-exercise-addict/

3. Only the word/phrase "a psychologist", or "a psychologist for 25 years" has been used to describe her in reference to qualifications.

4. 25 years ago, she founded the N.C.E.D. Perhaps that was her qualification?

5. Judging by the wide variety of blogs, essays, forums, writers, etc. that have quoted her, it appears that she has deliberately positioned herself as an expert to be consulted on all matters involving weight and diet. If this is true, then she has also (more than likely) provided the exact way to reference her, as indicated in no. 2 above.



--edit: oops! looks like SeekingtheTruth beat me to the NLP reference.

I found a PDF file from The Centre for Nutrition Education and Lifestyle Management (http://www.cnelm.co.uk/) entitled, "Caring for and Nurturing our future Evolution" (link). It gives the course outline for a BSc (Hons) in Nutrional Therapy (validated by Middlesex University). Toward the end of the file it says,

Our current teaching expertise includes…
Our tutors and lecturers are selected as much for their commitment to your training
as a nutritional therapist as they are for their academic qualifications

.

It then gives a list of the tutors and lecturers and Deanne Jade is among one of the names on the list as "Deanne Jade BSc (L 3)".

Yep, and that's likely the NLP connection:

It then gives a list of the tutors and lecturers and Deanne Jade is among one of the names on the list as "Deanne Jade BSc (L 3)".

Would that point to a 3rd year, or Level 3 Bachelor of Science in nutritional therapy? That would make sense of the claim of being a 'therapist' in terms associated with her area of concern - that being food, diet, weight, eating disorders, etc.

This may refer to the L3 designation:

[quote author=_http://www.nutripeople.co.uk/Prospectus%20Whole.pdf]
ITEC Level 3 Diploma in Nutrition & Health: for complementary therapists:

NLP Practitioner: 17 day course leading to NLP Practitioner status and eligibility to join ANLP. A course open to all health professionals that want to work with self and clients to achieve life goals.

NLP Master Practitioner: 20 day course

Other references:

A Bachelor of Science (B.S., B.Sc. or BSc in the UK and Ireland; less commonly, S.B., B.S.c. or Sc.B. from the Latin Scientiæ Baccalaureus) is an undergraduate academic degree awarded for completed courses that generally last three to five years...

Whether a subject is considered a science or an art can vary between universities. For example, an economics degree may be given as a B.A. by one university but as a B.Sc by another. Biology, biochemistry, maths, physics, chemistry, general science, earth science, and computer science are almost universally considered to be sciences.

Even in these cases, there are exceptions. The London School of Economics offers B.Sc. degrees in practically all subject areas, even those normally associated with arts degrees, while the Oxbridge universities award arts qualifications almost exclusively.

I hope this is pertinent to the topic and that my emotions have not biased my post. My niece was murdered by an ex-boyfriend who was taking a serotonin uptake inhibitor prescribed for depression. The murder and suicide may be, in part, attributed to the psychiatric, governmental, and pharmaceutical nexus poisoning and deranging many of our fellows.

Deanne Jade is a tip of the iceberg in a world wide epidemic of psychiatric, pharmaceutical industry, and government suppression of dissent and enforcement of appropriate behavior. The DSM fraud of the American Psychiatric Association is not based on science. It is a political document used to define reality for the benefit and protection of a self selected elite.

The people staffing the coercive apparatus of the mental health profession have no trouble providing credentials. They are trained and licensed by the state and academia with the agenda of academia and the state. It is a mind and physical control apparatus. The sordid history of psychiatry is examined by Dr. Thomas Szasz in Coercion as Cure. He is seen in the following short clip speaking on psychiatric fraud.

Dr.Thomas Szasz speaks on Psychiatic fraud.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQegsqYhuZE&feature=channel

Coercion and Cure is reviewed by Dr. John Breeding in the following film clip. He has many other pertinent youtube film clips exposing the ponerization of the mental health profession. It is ponerized to the extent that I think all psychopathology designations must be examined for origin, method, and agenda lest one become inadvertently associated with or the victim of an instrument of social control and degradation of human freedom and true psychological evolution. It seems as if all human life has become a profit and control center for an psychopathic agenda determined to enslave us all by diagnosis. Does di- agnosis really mean, now two of us don't know whats wrong with you?

It seems as if all human life has become a profit and control center for an psychopathic agenda determined to enslave us all by diagnosis.

Getting the word out, as we do, is definitely the way to go in response to that state.

People definitely need to know that they must educate themselves, so that they learn not to present themselves to the ponerized, pathological establishments looking for treatment.

Instead, they will come to places like this forum or other easy to find sites like our blogs, etc. that offer the cautions and guidance needed to successfully navigate this maze.
