There goes your argument. If you spent a little bit of time fact-checking, rather than relentlessly trolling my posts to get a jab in, you wouldn't look as ignorant as you do now.
Have a great day.
To the parent looking into things, it will serve you well to understand that some program parents that post here are not interested in facts or research. They are on an never-ending mission to justify their own poor parenting choices and they do this through continual ad hominem attacks against survivors of abusive programs, clinicians, former employees or anyone who disagrees with their factually unsubstantiated dogma. Just be aware that these people, like the woman who posted before, have an agenda only to discredit or smear people with different points of view because their point of view is entirely unsupported by research. Their last resort is "flame wars" to derail the subject.
Some of them also get "referral fees" for getting another parent to sign their child into a program. These "bonuses" are typically around $1000/kid. So be aware also that there is financial incentive for some of these vultures.

You are the ones with the agenda. My kid went to Second Nature, did well there, came back home and we all think it was a good experience for him. He actually liked it. The Psychiatrist in question is not an employee of Second Nature. There are no Psychiatrists on staff at Second Nature that I know of. My son's Dr. did a good job of communicating with the therapists there as MY SON'S concerned physician. It's called thouroughness and good medicine. On the front side, he did his homework, liked the set-up and recommended we give it a try.
To the original poster: I am not attacking anyone. I do believe I am the one being attacked because I promote the program, any program. I, too, was where you were four years ago. We tried everything and I know it is a very scary time for you. There are god-awful programs out there. I'm just giving you my own personal recommendation. I do not claim to be a professional. You've been to a professional that gave you some advice. We are a family that has been where you are and we made a good choice for OUR son. That is all I can say. I do not have statistics at my fingertips, and don't intend to spend the afternoon researching SNWP's effectiveness. By all means, get several opinions. You'll find this is a volitile subject and most people posting here are kids that SHOULD NOT have gone to a program of any kind. Good luck. It does get better.
