The bottom line, though, is telling the truth. I've told LOTS of stories about HLA, and they are true to my experience.
It's only defaming/slanderous/libelous if it isn't true. So, fuck 'em.
In MY experience HLA was a total bullshit, new-age, pop-psyche rip-off factory.
There were tons of uneducated, unlicensed, uncertified staff, up to and icluding the "Clinical Director," who called himself "Doctor," but had a fake PhD from a known, unaccredited diploma mill (this was confirmed by the owner directly to me when I raised the question of unaccredited degrees).
That place, its "philosophy," and it's advertising, in my opinion, are FULL OF SHIT.
