Swamp Town? I mean, that certainly sounds extremely professional. She obviously knows her stuff.

I hope that Ms. Marchman is not aware of the dishonesty and creepy behavior that Nick Peronace has inflicted upon horse people.
The people he has scammed (people who did not know better) and people he has attempted to scam (people who did know better) had no reason to expect this weird guy would try to claim that he was a āGrand Prix Dressage trainerā nor that he would claim to have ātrainedā at their farms when he did not.
People were stunned when he gave their addresses saying ātrainedā at their farms, complete with pictures, used without permission, having never worked there and just pulling images off the internet.
Someone should probably notify Ms.Marchman about Mr. Peronaceās background.
If she actually has done her due diligence re Nick Peronace, that reflects all that anyone needs to know about her expertise.

Can we be certain that Ms Marchman did actually write the foreword and approved its publication?

Heās personally thanked her on his page, tagging her by name, so Iām guessing sheās gone along with it. Apparently sheās retired, probably not a bad thing considering what thisāll do to her credibility.

If she hasnāt, well that tells me enough about her skills as a psychologist. Doesnāt gather history, takes client at word, buys in to client beliefsā¦ Just no.

The more I worked as a psychologist, the more I realised how many psychologists were ā¦ sh!t. Having a degree, a practice, writing a bookā¦ means nothing. You can have all that and still lack empathy, the ability to pick diamonds from glass, or any sort of ability to help a person enact meaningful change within their life.
My specialty was assessment. I loved administering and scoring the WAIS and WMS, even the Hare 10 (psychopathy checklist). Counselling? Errā¦ not my thing. I did a lot of suicide risk assessment. Got a first class Hons at uni.
Still was a sh!t counsellor.

It does occur to me that she might be a dishonest, homophobic racist, too. Birds of a feather, you know.

It sounds just like him.
10 bucks itās his daughter, Sara.
Edit: sorry, it was his other daughter. SJ is the one who went postal on the Free Horse Talk forum.
NP posted a video of his other daughter harassing BLM protesters, screaming and waving a Trump flag. She is a rotten apple at the base of his tree.

His video was of his daughter Elizabeth. His daughter Sara doesnāt live with him, seems to have more reasonable political views, and doesnāt seem to get involved with his shenanigans as much. Sara is not his natural child. Eli,abet was coached to act out at a demonstration screaming at the demonstrators and waving a Trump flag. Police on bicycles had to barricade her from lunging at the demonstrators, according to the video he posted of her doing it. . It was all very disturbing, and he was very proud of her.
