Ronald Steven Federici

For years — and as recently as 2008 — Federici has claimed to be licensed by the Virginia Medical Board, when in fact he is licensed by the Virginia Board of Psychologists (both as a clinical and a school psychologist). Moreover, he has laid claim to several “diplomate” or “fellow” credentials which appear to have little or no general acceptance by, or recognition within, the psychology profession (possible “vanity boards”):

 

• American Board of Professional Neuropsychology (ABPN)
• American College of Professional Neuropsychology [same as above, but he lists it separately]
• American Board of Medical Psychotherapists (ABMP)
• Fellow (in Advanced Psychopharmacology), International College of Prescribing Psychologists (ICPP)
• Fellow (in Advanced Clinical Psychopharmacology), ACAAP [not clarified, but neither American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry nor Air Cargo Agents Association of Pakistan]
• American Board of Disability Analysts (ABDA)
• American Board of Medical Consultants
• American Academy of Behavioral Medicine
• National Academy of Neuropsychology
• American Board of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy [sometimes he lists it as Therapists]

There is no evidence that Ronald Federici possesses a medical degree.
