Our experience with Simon Parkes as a counselor

Noted: Bottom line message, Mr Parkes needs to get out of the counseling business ...

Though I am not going to dismiss his public voice as being all rubbish.

Why not? Is there any reason to believe any of his claims? He's proven he is dishonest and not above theft, apparently. In the interest of 'balance,' you would believe 'some' of his claims? I'm really curious and interested to know why. I don't get why people who have achieved some degree of esteem and respect, when unmasked, aren't dropped like hot rocks. Like Teal Swann, he is very likely just another shyster with potential to do significant harm.

If anybody here feels they have been cheated (or fraudulently handeled) by either Teal Swan or Simon Parkes, then they need to take legal action for themselves ... I personally don't believe it's good practice for any forum members to be slandering any individuals here ... And regarding Simon Parkes, I never said I believe everything he says ...
Once again, 'I am not going to dismiss his public voice as being all rubbish' ... either.

I tried to get an appointment with Simon just to see if he could help with my targeting somehow. I was skeptical he could help but tried it anyway. He put off the appointments for months and eventually made a threatening remark at me and removed me from skype. It was because I had posted on avalon I didn't buy his whole shpeil of evil extraterrestrials being here to "piggyback on our ascension". Such a ridiculous premise to me.

Anyway, I could sense a bit of dark energies from him. It's like when he gets angry he wants whoever he gets angry with to be punished... He threatened me about posting my opposition to his stories. Basically I believe Simon is an unwitting(or maybe even witting) disinformant. When he says things like black people are harder to mind control for ETs I can safely say the areas I don't know as much in he's probably serving whoppers there too...

There are extensive disinformation programs aimed at the project avalon demographic. I think Simon is part of such if i had to take an educated guess...

Yes ...

And quite seriously, perhaps it should be post added to the forum guidelines as a general disclaimer.

Simon is quite dyslexic and has had to rely on others to handle many aspects of his email correspondence, Skyping, finances, etc.

His strengths are in his role as whistleblower and hopefully he will continue to get supported in that role, because I think we need as many whistleblowers with inside information as we can get, even if they aren't always right.
I think we need to cut them some slack when they are obviously trying very hard to do what they can, which I think is the case with Simon.
Not to say that they don't need to hear criticism, because I think they do,

End quote - Dyclexic it sefl , is an indication of ' other dimensional abilities ', I put this to any doubters, " Do you really believe that Simon would tread this very dangerous path. as part of an Alien agenda, when, if having entered polytics, .. he could have made millions ?

My husband is a dyslexic GP, and has other qualities, like photographic memory, and possibly gets interdimensional help with his diagnosis.
But he does make every possible effort to remain worthy of the trust of his patients. More so than just common courtesy.
If it is not upsetting to Simon to have so many upset clients then he is most likely under exterrnal control, because it would make no sense that he would sabotage his work voluntarily.

But apparently it IS upsetting to Simon to have many upset clients.
Though he may also be dealing with external interference and/or influence if not control, but that is a problem which all whistleblowers have, though most likely not physicians.

There is such a thing as "things getting out of hand", life is moving too fast, too many things people all vying for some sort of footprint and so on. Just last week I for the first time I can remember , left a women friend waiting at a restaurant by herself. I was home and just completely forgot i had made plans with her. I was so shocked I did this, not a memory of it at all and then I had to realize I was trying to juggle too much at once, not writing things down and so on. Im not defending Simon, but I would love to know his side of the story . I also applaud Alberto and Daniella for sharing this.

[AutumnW]

Excellent! Let Simon Parkes answer some of these allegations on the forum here. It might be a bit hard to do with his pants on fire, but he can try!

Several years ago I was almost conned out of not just my life savings but life as I had known it. The individual came across as gentle, kind and extremely understanding. Very soft spoken.

He used spirituality as a way to pull me in and illicit trust. I saw through the scam before it was too late. Thankfully.

This is the reason I have zero patience with anyone who uses the appearance of being high minded and helpful to play on the best qualities of their victims.

[Bill Ryan]

... please.

The topic of this thread, started by Alberto e Daniela, is how Simon Parkes handles himself in counseling sessions, and how he manages the scheduling and booking of those sessions, with paid clients. That's all.

It potentially affects quite a lot of people who may be at their most vulnerable.

The thread contains specific experiences, that are problematic and concerning, reported by known, real, people, who are forum members. This isn't casual, malevolent, irresponsible innuendo or rumor.

I've been sent a recording of one session, and it's a horror story. Any certified counselor would be banned for life — with no risk of exaggeration — if a formal complaint was made to the certificating authority. In this case, nothing can be done, as Simon isn't qualified or certified.

Of course, I can't and won't share that publicly or privately. It's a little silly, if I may gently say, to ask for that to be posted as 'evidence'. It's for those concerned, and only for those concerned, to share those recordings if they wish or choose. But the session recordings all exist.

This isn't untrue, invented, any kind of a 'smear' or 'attack', or a false malevolent rumor. It is what it is, nothing more or less, and it's merely pretty awful stuff that breaches any counselor's code one might ever conceive of.

Thank you Bill.
That was the missing piece. I didn't know that there were recordings (just complaints but no proof).
That is definitely a game changer, then.

[greybeard]

I agree whole heartedly with Bill and his post should really be the end of the matter as regards the subject of this thread.
No disrespect to those who are supportive of Simon's information in other areas.

Chris

[onawah]

I certainly can agree to that!
(And am very happy to take Bill's word for it.)
It will cast Simon's information as a whistleblower into a different light, as well.

[AutumnW]

Onawah, I get the very strong impression that you and 99% of the individuals on this forum are very kind, intelligent and genuinely seeking the truth. This is SUCH a good thing.

One of the very few drawbacks, imho, is a person's best qualities can be twisted and used to further the interests of conmen. Many of these types have profound personality disorders.

They are proficient liars and even though logic should dictate that they follow through with appointments , for example, in their own self interest -- that's using OUR logic, not theirs.

A spiritual conman understands very well that the paradigms he/she establishes will help them wriggle out of ever being pinned down.

Why be responsible diligent and forthright when you can lean on your 'learning disabilities, ADD or whatever? If that doesn't work there is always the default of 'mind control by mantids,' explanation.

A really good con doesn't have to defend themselves because others will do it for them. Simon has cased the joint and broken in. But the joint isn't a place, it is the current predilection for certain beliefs and attitudes.

It's Simon who has broken into the minds of many (and to use his phraseology) HE is the one piggy backing on the ideas of the 'ascension minded.'

The signature response of a conman (sociopathic narcissistic type) is their reaction to those who hold them to account and don't let them slip away.

You will generally see this insane shift from soft spoken gentle to a jaw-dropping rage. The threats insults etc...are part of the package.

In the interest of full disclosure I think that there could be some mental manipulation from archon et races going on too. I don't disagree with that. I am just very wary of how that whole topic is handled.

[ulli]

Well stated, AutumnW
Just for emphasis:

"The signature response of a conman (sociopathic narcissistic type) is their reaction to those who hold them to account and don't let them slip away."

[AutumnW]

Thanks Ulli--Personality disorders are my area of unique interest. I have studied the conman personality upside down and sideways. And there is always room for doubt until some major give away occurs.

I was most interested in the revelations that he raged and resorted to threats, when he was pinned down. That satisfied all the criteria for sociopathy, psychopathy, or malignant narcissism. It is a VERY harrowing experience to be treated not just badly but cruelly and callously by someone you have placed great trust in. Betrayal trauma is just about the worst thing someone can go through. It's bad enough when it's a friend .... But someone playing a convincing spiritual advisor? Yikes!

As Araucaria suggested earlier .... when the pile of misunderstanding grows too tall with respect to your personal testimony it is sometimes better to call it a quit .

I don't recall saying exactly that. However I do recall posting this just today: https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...=1#post1077852

Well .. generally speaking and as I tried to point out earlier in the thread , more or less unsuccessfully ,
you can't really 'take the ET out of the equation' .

I was trying to point to that direction but this says very little to anyone who aren't an ET, a life-long 'contactee' or someone personally involved with the subject .

For most of others it shall remain more important : whether Simon came on time, does he have his bills payed and by whom,
does he counsel people in the right or wrong way , how many cats does he have and so forth .

On the very next level it's how many interviews did each person do, is the quality adequate , did he make good and fitting predictions ,
who are his friends and enemies .

All the human 'stuff' . I'm no expert on judging 'human stuff' .

But , I do feel obliged to leave it to people now to discuss it because they would not get me on the 'ET stuff' anyway.

''Simon said''.

Agape, The "devil made me (him) do it" defense is fraught with difficulty. It leaves no room for self determination, adherence to moral standards. It can be used as an excuse for deplorable behavior -- and that can manifest in the mundane arena, but is primarily taking place within the social and spiritual sphere.

This isn't a manner of i's not being carefully dotted and t's crossed. It is not a 'mistake'. Those you make on a math quiz. These are moral failings. There is betrayal, mean spirit, etc...

ETs are not 'devil' . I suppose that anything 'too difficult' on human minds can turn you to 'a devil' for a moment , maths for example .

Maths is good example really . There were many brilliant mathematicians who have slipped 'over the edge' , in their minds , early or late in their life and turned 'a bit mad' or seriously ill.

Dealing with the ET infusion and exposure for many years now, I do find some similarities here .

It's a case of solving a supra-human puzzle that is either almost endless or unsortable from human point of view .

Logically , tell me of one person who would offer to answer any question about human body successfully unless they're MD . Medicine is another good example . You have to study many years and then all life to get all the data together and never come to the end anyway.
But any 'shaman' can offer to diagnose you from 'en face' and treat you in an hour.

Yes I've read on previous page , you said 'let Simon come here and discuss' . I doubt he will do that or that it would be too meaningful , I may be wrong .

There was a decent meaning in some things I was trying to convey here , to do with the ET paradigm and people seeking to find themselves through such information,

I've even explained somewhere why I stopped teaching after my ET encounters ..

that I believe the problematics should be solved hand-in-hand with scientific perspectives rather than confounding peoples 'spirituality' ,

for those who do not know me totally , I was also with the Ammach & Bases project at the time when Simon came in.
He's in the UK so he had chance to get much personal work done.

But we're not all that different at all. At least so it seemed ...


P.S.: Ah. The reason of me saying about don't take ETs out of equation were people stressing that perhaps he has personal difficulties he can't handle

BUT , his testimony is still quite reliable . Which parts ( rhetorical question , of course ).
I've heard that one many times around this 'arena' , concerning some whistleblowers but it really does not 'resonate' with my human life experience at all.

IT does happen under exceptional circumstances - people speaking extraordinary truth but being 'out of character' otherwise .

In most cases and when someone are personally unreliable , their personal testimony to any field can't be taken 'for granted' .

[AutumnW]

You know, Agape. It is really pretty simple. Some people lie and make money doing so. No mental gymnastics required.

[onawah]

So where should we draw the line when it comes to sociopathic or psychopathic behavior from an alleged ET currently in a human body?
I think some people are going to feel like victims no matter how well they are treated, and that should be a factor considered.
But if someone who is portraying themselves as a wise and compassionate person persistently rages and heaps abuse on those who come to them for help, they need to be outed, no matter who they are or what their lineage.
And preferably seek help, as well, though in the case of sociopaths and psychopaths, I don't think we really know how to help, but they can at least, hopefully, be prevented from harming others.

[AutumnW]

Agape, Can you start a thread and discuss what happened to you, as far as alien intervention ET contact goes? I am very interested. Maybe you could link to something you have written already? I don't want you to feel shut down because we aren't in agreement about Simon.
