“Clinical psychologists' failure to achieve a more significant impact on clinical and public health may be traced to their deep ambivalence about the role of science and their lack of adequate science training" … Timothy Baker, 2009
​
The Turning Points for Families ~ Texas program is informed by the highest standard, peer-reviewed, expert, and "generally accepted" research in the field of parental alienation and estrangement today (please see bibliographies throughout this website).
