No matter how it translates, it remains a lie

Here are the German and English versions of a 2015 advertisement falsely merchandising Chuck Spezzano as a "psychologist" (he is not) who is "internationally renowned."

This fable was promoted and repeated over and over by Django and Bianca Hediger, who are close associates of the Spezzanos. Other ads claimed Chuck possessed a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology (he does not).

Every time this confabulation is located it gives us the opportunity to mention that Spezzano is NOT a psychologist. His Ph.D. in "professional psychology" was unaccredited by the APA meaning that it bypassed any national standard, so even  by German standards he does not qualify for the title. He has had no meaningful continuing academic education in 40 years, is not licensed to practice psychology, and was fined by the State of Hawaii in 2004 for pretending to be a professional.

The Hedigers' promotional company, "Powerful Events," is now kaput.
