About two years before Gary Rick was arrested in a sting operation for fraud, this is what this "Ph.D. psychologist" did to our little boy:
:
"Ph.D.". said to our son: You're going to go to school two hours a day.
CHILD: (tears starting) "Other kids will notice when I'm leaving and it won't be safe.
And that's illegal.
[NOTE: Our son had been assaulted already several times and the district winked at it]
Ph.D. What're ya going to do--- fly a helicopter with a banner that says I'm
no good?
We're the adults and you're just a kid. So we decide how many hours you're going to school.
CHILD: You're a quack.
Ph.D. You'd better not say that.
CHILD: You're a quack
Ph.D. You say that again, and I'll throw you out of my office.
CHILD: You're a quack
Ph.D. ---------He opened the door of his office, bodily picked up our little boy and threw him hard
against the wall of the hallway outside his office door.
Gary Rick also fraudulently tricked us and another parent into thinking he was providing an psychoeducational assessment independent of the Ventura School District--- and all the while collecting money from both the district and the parents. And of course, he divided our son's high IQ by the number 2 --- on his psychoeducational report--- Despite running the gauntlet of corrupt school officials and people like Dr. Rick, our son is now a highly respected software engineer.
There are corrupt psychologists and neuropsychologists similarly defrauding parents--- perpetrating the same fraud and child abuse--- harassing and emotionally tormenting young parents and their children....and at taxpayer expense. It is safer to get a referral from a law firm, such as Newman, Aaronson and Vanaman in Sherman Oaks, that can be trusted and who specialize in education law and do not work for school districts...

BY THE WAY--- Conspiracy among school district personnel, agencies, contractees, to violate the civil rights (section 504 of the 1973 vocational rehabilitation act and other antidiscrimination law) is expressly prohibited...
VUSD, Hueneme, other school districts.... pull off with impunity these kinds of abuses and violations of law with the help of teachers, administrators, school psychologists and people much like Gary Rick Ph.D. read more
