After nearly a year of "mediation" with Doyne, days and days of working with him with no progress whatsoever and over $10,000 in fees, I told Doyne that he wasn't making any progress and that I would no longer pay for his services. Doyne retaliated by filing a "report" against me with CPS claiming that I abused my son by holding him upside down in my living room during play. Even Doyne acknowledged that it was clearly play, yet Doyne, apparently displeased that I objected to paying for his outrageously expensive and entirely ineffective 'services' (indeed, his presence greatly escalated the anger and hostility my wife exhibited), contacted CPS. CPS investigated and found his report to be baseless, yet my ex-wife sought sole custody based upon Doyne's (false) report.
Pros: Calming at first until you realize he's a crook
Cons: Made huge mistakes, demanded a bribe, entirely ineffective
