HEALING TURKEY DINNER
TDN
PLYMOUTH--The Board of Behavioral Sciences is looking into claims that
a Dr Turk Lee provided a full course turkey dinner for his clients on Thanksgiving Day as well as provided a full course of
Group Therapy for all who attended. He charged $60 for the full course dinner and $100 for the all day Group Therapy
Session.
The claim first came to the Board's attention when one of Dr. Turk's clients complained
that he ran out of mince meat pie and he had to eat "punkin" pie which was embarrassing because he couldn't pronounce pumpkin.
Every time he asked someone to pass the "punkin" pie, the entire group burst into laughter. The unidentified plaintiff
said that the whole ordeal brought back too many bad memories. "But that was the whole point," Dr Turk insisted.
"And if 'Stuffy' there would have let the group assist him, he could have healed a whole host of Holiday traumas. But
Oh No. Stuffy had to have his little narcissistic way and ruin it for himself and now the rest of us."
The Board is reviewing another complaint from another attendee who claimed that
Dr. Turk used two Turkey Drumsticks to perform an EMDR procedure. "It was the first time in my life that I felt perfectly
satisfied at a holiday meal and did not feel the urge to overeat UNTIL he started waving those drumsticks in front of
my eyes. I can't believe he would do such a cruel thing."
"You bet I did the EMDR procedure with Turkey Drumsticks," Dr. Turk said.
"And everyone but Queenie there got a lot out of it."
When the two plaintiffs were asked if they were going to seek therapy elsewhere,
they both insisted that they would be overwhelmed with abandonment feelings if they changed therapists at this stage
of treatment. "This is the longest that I've been able to stick to it," said the first plaintiff. "Should I quit
treatment over a little punkin pie?" When the TDN reporter began to laugh uncontrollably, the plaintiff punched the
reporter and said, "And by the way, I flunked anger management!"
Despite the investigation, Dr. Turk is already taking reservations for Christmas
Day and has only a few spots left.
