False advertising from Wrage Seminar Service

In this commercial marketing of a Chuck Spezzano event, Wrage Seminar Service says Chuck is a "Clinical Psychologist."

Yet again we must point out this is false advertising. Falsifying Chuck Spezzano's credentials in marketing seems to be the rule rather than exception, especially in European merchandising of POV literature and events. The Spezzanos have allowed this to spread-- much to their economic advantage. Sitting by and passively letting these falsehoods become so widespread year after year to their financial benefit is ultimately the responsibility of Chuck and Lency Spezzano.

Spezzano's 1977 Ph.D. was apparently in something exotic called "Professional Psychology" and seems to be peculiar to the now extinct school he attended. It was not accredited by the APA, which means his diploma bypassed any sort of national standard. Even in Europe this should disqualify him from being called a "psychologist." Both of the Spezzanos are on record saying Chuck is not a "psychologist."

In addition, Spezzano was fined by the State of Hawaii in 2004 for impersonating a professional. He is not licensed and is not even remotely qualified to practice professional psychology even if he applied. He has NEVER worked as a licensed "psychologist" or published any research in peer-reviewed journals that we can locate. His credentials have been inflated and falsified for decades, starting with his own newspaper advertisements in the 1980s. Here are some links to some primary sources of interest so you can see the evidence:

False advertising from Wrage Seminar Service

In their commercial marketing for an expensive Chuck Spezzano event, Wrage Seminar Service claims that not only is Chuck a "psychologist," but a "clinical psychologist." Wrage has a long history of  spreading these fables-- apparently without suffering any legal consequences. It goes without saying they have never been corrected by Psychology of Vision personnel, especially Chuck himself.
