Dr Jessica Taylor and VictimFocus #13 A triumph of shallow knowledge and ambition over ability

New to Tattle Life? Click "Order Thread by Most Liked Posts" button below to get an idea of what the site is about:
One of the most disturbing things about her is the fact that she will use all the things she is meant to stand for as weapons against anyone she sees as her enemy. The way she spoke about Sally Ann utilised all the victim blaming she used to make her name. She is a perpetrator through and through.

It's so much worse than the salt path as that (and Dr Jess Taylors) is a made up memoir sold as a true story.

This is being sold as something to help people when all it will do is make them despair. Her posts on social media are targeting people that need professional help, not to be told their delusions are all valid and there is no help for them.

Open letters are a waste of time usually, but this is a case for a credible body to make a stance.

As someone said she's stolen a whole career based on lies and she's now an imminent risk.
I've not read The Salt Path, but I've seen it on the news. Didn't the author claim her partner had been cured of an incurable neurological disease by hiking, or have I misunderstood?

Ummm, is she a forensic psychologist though? Is she even any of those things?
It's a protected title and misuse should be reported to the Fitness to Practice team at the Health and Care Professions Council. The contact details are on the HCPC website. I expect she might rush to correct it this time, as she reads here, but this isn't the first time this has happened and she's let it slide.

She certainly likes to misrepresent herself.

I don't get why she did a PhD in phycology when she disagrees with pretty much all of it.

Surely if she thinks her fellow phycologists and what they push are worthless then so is she.

I clicked on that video just to see what they introducer her as, and yes it's using a protected title that she's not registered to use.

To practice as a forensic psychologist in the UK, you must be registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). It is a legal requirement, and using the protected title "forensic psychologist" without HCPC registration is an offense.
As flawlessly beautiful as she is qualified.

You haven’t misunderstood. I read the first book and was charmed but also slightly disbelieving. It didn’t read like a memoir. So I wasn’t hugely surprised when the whole thing turned out to be a pile of cack.

We should all report her.

Yes you're right, I oversimplified it. I think the difference is the salt path was sold as an uplifting Story rather than as cure to a very unusual condition.

Jess is selling a book full of what seems to be despair and no way out while telling anyone that's been stalked they need this book.

The Salt Path was a rousing true story of a middle aged middle class couple Ray and Moth, who lost their home and found out he had an incurable, terminal condition. They decided to walk around the costal path of South West England, and despite their challenges it appeared to do Moth so much good, and he has lived longer than anyone with the disease.

Or, if you’re the sort of person who was on the Jack Monroe threads…The Salt Path is a ridiculous blag about a couple who couldn’t bear the idea of council housing and fiddled their benefits, lived in a tent on a coastal path, stealing as they went, eating nothing, whilst owning an abandoned French property, he was terminally ill but miraculously just came off his prescription meds and got better, this bollox lasted another two books before Sally and Timothy were outed as having stolen tens of thousands from her former employer and their families, weren’t homeless and were squatting in a relatives home for a year, never cowered in a cupboard hiding from bailiffs because they were seen doing a moonlight flit, didn't walk the coastal path in one go if at all and he can’t prove his diagnosis which would have ended his life years ago but other people who have it and physically can’t walk were being encouraged to go out for a long hike by well-meaning idiots who read the book.

I think it’s the lying about gruelling exercise whilst allegedly having CBD that is comparator.

This isn't an attack on her looks, but she looks so different without all her usual filters.
(But obviously still a stunningly beautiful #lesbian before she has a conniption).

On the plus side, it does look like she’s found a chapstick.

Maybe the sheer lack of pixels on the filters she uses gives her the crusty lip look.

Sorry for confusion - salt path comparison was more about how shady the publishing industry in releasing all this false health information, whether it be for physical disease or mental health

I’m glad someone else has gone there. She’s looking rough AF. First thing I noticed was the eye bags. She needs sleep and water and to reduce the stress levels in her life. I wonder what she’s so stressed about? 🤔🤭

I couldn't care less what anyone looks like. A face is an accident of birth and she's a perfectly normal, average looking woman. It's her insistence that she's so very young and irresistibly beautiful that makes people point our she is in fact middle aged and not especially pretty.

And it's her over use of very blurring filters that made me post that photo.
After all her insistence she's 'Too young! Too pretty!' to be taken seriously by various professionals. And no doubt why her trolls are wildly jealous.
Her actual face is perfectly fine.
I wonder if she does use that blurring filter because 'Jay' looks so young.

I’d be curious to see the stats on how many delusions are ridded by psychological and medical intervention, and how many turn out to be real stalkers living in the attic. I’m willing to bet my left tit (my favourite, perkier one) that it’s a teeny tiny percentage of cases where there’s really a man in the roof.

Medical misogyny is very real, it exists, women’s symptoms and their experiences of abuse are so often minimised, women are so frequently misdiagnosed or disbelieved, there’s no denying that, it’s widely reported on, and many of us will have experienced it in some form or another. However, Jess has a clear agenda to twist the facts into something so completely barmy for her own gain. In doing this, she only serves to make a mockery of all of the historical work done in VAWG research, diminishing it to dramatic anecdotes. She’s ironically giving hysterical. She’s implying that every delusion had by a woman is actually anchored in truth. Can she not see the risks of validating delusions in those facing genuine mental health crises, all in the name of personal point scoring (or book selling)? Can she really not see how harmful it is to sensationalise stories of men in roofs, reducing complex scenarios to sound bites that lack nuance? Or does she just not care?

This one story about the guy in the loft she uses all the time to say that women will be medicated or institutionalised if they report stalking. But she's lied on just about everything!

The woman wasn't sectioned and the first time she called the police they came and found him.

She did get meds from a doctor, but she says herself she was going though mental health issues and it was her friends that convinced her to see a doctor.

She's got so much front to totally lie about a story to suit her made up narrative that's so easy to debunk.

JM wasn't dangerous, unless someone burned down their house from her baked bean tin candles or died of botulism from one of her recipes.
JT, however, is a menace.
There was also her advice re opening of tins in some highly dangerous way, with a sharp knife, I think? And advice re putting mugs of boiling water in an airfryer. But I digress.

Sigh.
So, having watched this young lady's TikTok:
The guy wasn't in her roofspace because he was stalking her, he was squatting there because he was homeless (and possibly also casing the place with an eye to robbing her when she went out).
The police took her report seriously from the word go, attended immediately and investigated properly.
She openly states she was already suffering from bad mental health issues at the time and was known to local services.
She also infers that her friends immediately jumped to her suffering from delusions because she had suffered similar episodes in the past or just due to their general concerns about her mental health.
The neighbour knew he was in the wrong allowing this guy onto the property, so denied knowing anything about it.
This is really not a good example of Jess's claim that stalking victims are being pathologised at every turn.

She's calling this todays gift 😂🤣

The book is exactly the creative writing we all thought, her making out we have a private group to do stuff like flyer her street while drinking wine and it's all a dark secret we're keeping from our husbands. Let me guess she knows this all because one member of the group couldn't live with themselves and confessed all to Jess :rolleyes:

This one story shows she can't even find one single extremely rare example of what she claims happens all the time with "people she's worked with" (spoiler: she doesn't work with anyone). So makes it up and gets away with it.

It's scary how she's taken seriously by MPs and is the spokesperson for a charity in Australia when it doesn't take much pulling at her many loose threads to see everything is a lie with her.
