Chuck and Lency Spezzano run an international scam. They hold large group trainings around the world, claiming that they are healing. They coerce people into paying lots of money to take these trainings, to climb their hierarchy ladder to become trainers themselves.
These trainings are like the classic Est type seminars of decades past.
They practice affinity fraud by preying on specific communities, draining their money, and training their leaders to continue the scam.
The large group trainings are very high pressure. People are pressured to not go to the bathroom, people are not supposed to leave early or arrive late. Audience members are encouraged to freak out, all in the supposed name of healing. People end up screaming, sobbing, vomiting, laughing hysterically.
Videos of Lency Spezzano doing one on one sessions before an audience are available online.
Classic tools of manipulation and persuasion are used, including hypnosis, coarse language, touch, and aggression.
This isn't psychological therapy, this is not spiritual healing, this is a scam.

#2 Consumer Comment
Buyer Beware
AUTHOR: Pinon - ()
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, January 07, 2014
Psychology of Vision offers several types of events, including large group awarness trainings (LGAT). Est and Lifespring are two of the most commonly known types of this LGAT genre. POV is another.
LGATs are not at all proven to produce actual positive results. Not enough research has been done to find out if only the placebo response is in play. There are also ethical questions to ask concerning how recruitment and marketing is done.
Lency Spezzano's response here does not match what many many former followers report. None of us need to be analyzed by Lency as she has attempted to do so here. What is most important is that some participants have reported feeling suicidal during and after events. They report that families have broken up over POV involvement. A professional hypnotherapist tells us that Lency's "joining" is actually an unethical form of stage hypnosis.
POV encourages people to churn up and divulge past trauma. But they are not licensed therapists, their actions are not in a controlled, safe, ethical environment. Partipants do not recieve after care or follow up unless they do more of the POV practices, which can include paying for more events.
No matter what Lency, or I, or anyone says, please be wise before giving this group your hard earned money and time. Read up on the warning signs of potentially unsafe group leaders. Survivor stories can now be found online, please take them seriously.
POV may claim that we are attacking, that we are unprofessional, that we are saying it all wrong, that we have some sort of mysterious agenda. In reality, we want to help educate our fellow consumers. Some of us have had our lives seriously damaged by POV. We now need exit counseling.
If you are a POV follower and you find yourself now drinking and gambling a lot, consider the possibility that POV is not helping you any, and that actual professional help would be vastly better.
Also, if you have a serious illness, please find and listen to a good physician. Chuck Spezzano's claims that illnesses all have metaphors, that if understood and treated by POV practices, could be healed, is a bogus, damaging claim. Cancer is cancer, not "the embodiment of self-directed anger".
