Alejandro Jodorowski once said...
"Someday, someone will hug you so tight
that all your broken pieces
will stick back together again."
Hello and welcome to<i> Case Closed.</i>
Yes, a nice hug can be very nice and very therapeutic.
Let's see what our first case is about.
Please bring out the litigants.
I went looking for Grandma's house
and ended up with the big, bad wolf.
I do my best.
However they take it is up to them.
-Good afternoon and welcome. -Good afternoon.
Elena, you're suing Alfredo.
Tell me why you're suing him
and what you're requesting to settle this case.
Good afternoon, ma'am.
I'm suing Alfredo for $5,000.
Alfredo is my hug therapist.
This man has used me.
-He made me... -Your hug therapist?
Yes, he hugs people for a living.
Let me tell you a little about my history
so you'll understand what I'm talking about.
I want you to know he tricked me.
He made me fall head over heels for him.
Okay.
Now tell me what drove you to look for his services.
Okay, ma'am.
I had a boyfriend for five years.
My ex.
This man treated me like garbage.
He'd humiliate me, abuse me
and from time to time even hit me.
I was humiliated.
My friends noticed what was happening
and I ended up breaking up with him.
I didn't have a life.
I was single for a whole year.
One day, a friend tells me she knows of a hug therapist.
Supposedly, he was very effective.
I thought, "Good.
That's exactly what I need to break out of this slump."
I looked online and these people actually exist.
I checked other people's comments and it works.
I thought,
"Why not? I need to get over this."
So I decided to go see him
and he ended up making me feel things I hadn't felt in ages.
I felt so safe with him when he'd hug me.
He had different hugging techniques.
First he'd show me one, then another,
and then another more intimate one.
Every day that passed I felt more and more attracted to him.
He'd look me in the eye, whisper in my ear and touch me.
He'd tell me how sexy I was.
-"Any man could fall for you." -That's part of the therapy.
I ended up falling madly in love with him, ma'am.
And what made you think he was falling for you?
I know he was and here's why.
Some of the things we were doing were completely off the books.
One day, while we were hugging...
He called it "spooning."
Okay.
Let me tell you what spooning is all about.
He had this sofa, right?
He'd have me lay down in a fetal position
while he was laying behind me.
He hugged me so hard I could feel he had an erection.
I thought to myself,
"Nice. I'm loving this."
I was so in love with him
and I was flattered that he liked me back.
He was reciprocating.
That's right.
I wanted that moment to last forever.
It was like a dream come true.
Or take it to the next level.
So when he finally let go he tells me,
"I'm very sorry. It won't happen again."
And he leaves.
I couldn't stop asking myself how or why
he'd have an erection if this was only a session for him.
He was supposed to be a professional.
It doesn't make any sense for him to get an erection.
I called him and asked him out for coffee.
He went, "Sure."
So we went for coffee outside of his clinic.
I sat him down and asked him to look me in the eye.
"I'm head over heels for you."
And you know what he did?
He looked at me, then looked down and laughed.
I thought, "Well, at least there's hope."
This man duped me.
He tricked me with his sweet words
so that I'd keep going back to therapy.
All he wanted from me was my money.
Now tell me, are you the only one having this issue?
Is there someone else having this same problem?
Yes, there is, ma'am.
Let me tell you what I found out.
One day I arrived to therapy a little earlier than usual.
The moment I was walking in,
this young man was storming out of there, crying.
You know what he told me?
"Another one to fall in love with me."
I couldn't believe it, ma'am. I was in shock.
You were stunned.
I couldn't believe another man was in love
with the same man I was.
I very concerned so I stayed in the parking lot.
Suddenly, a girl walks out looking happy as a clam.
I called her over and pretended it was my first time there.
I said, "So tell me about Dr. Alfredo."
And she goes,
"He's the best, but you'd better watch it 'cause we're together.
I love him and he loves me back."
That's when you found out
she was in the same position as you.
Between you and me, why do you call him doctor?
Is he a doctor?
Well, I'm trying to call him something professional.
To make it seem a little nicer.
And since I love him so much... You can imagine.
You're putting him on a pedestal.
-He's the best. -Okay.
Perfect.
Alfredo, do you have a doctorate?
No at all, ma'am.
What are you?
I'm a massage therapist.
-A massage therapist? -Yes, ma'am.
No way.
I attended a massage institute for three years
in order to get a certificate in massage therapy.
-Massage therapy? -Yes, ma'am.
Which I turned, in time, into hug therapy.
-This is an old... -Let's take a short break.
When we come back, I'd like you to tell me
who granted you this certificate in "hug massage."
'Cause you're not even a therapist.
-Hug therapy. -Correct.
What did you have to do to get it?
What kind of training did you receive and from whom.
This all happened in Argentina.
Some people from Argentina came and taught us
all about hug therapy.
This course is approximately... Excuse me.
...approximately 30 hours long
and it prepares you to be a hugger.
So a 30-hour class and some Argentinian people
with the world's shadiest credentials
give you this piece of paper and now she calls you doctor.
What the world is coming to is... just great.
First of all, I'd like to ask you,
as the defendant in this case,
to grant me a restraining order against her
to keep her away from my business and myself.
So you don't want her as your client anymore.
This woman's done nothing but slander me
with my other clients.
Of course. You've duped us all.
Hold on. Let him talk.
She's even made a scene at my office.
I never told her I was a psychologist or a doctor.
I specialize in hug therapy.
We try helping people feel things
and raise their self-esteem.
Arouse their senses in ways they thought
they couldn't anymore.
People are scared. People don't hug anymore.
People feel things, but won't talk about them.
They hide them. They're depressed.
What we do here is we stop this from happening through therapy.
We don't quantify our therapies.
She's allowed to go as many times as she wants.
No contract. No obligation.
She's obsessed.
Tell me something, did you have an erection or not?
Yes, ma'am.
That erection could've been caused by excess water.
-Are you serious? -Maybe when I touched her...
I got caught up in the moment.
-But I stopped the session. -That was so unprofessional.
I stood up and ended the session.
She told me.
I asked her to stop coming.
"Don't come if you don't want to."
I was very embarrassed.
Okay. Who has witnesses?
-I do. -Me too.
Both of you?
You know what? Let's bring them all out.
I have two witnesses who went through the same thing I did.
You're crazy.
-Good afternoon. -I want my money back.
Who's here on behalf of the plaintiff?
You two? Okay.
What's your name?
-Alejandro. -Alejandro.
What happened to you?
I started going to therapy to overcome my shyness.
Everything was fine at first, but after some time,
I started noticing how our sessions
started getting more intimate, more personal.
He started talking to me in a different way
and touching me in places he had never touched me before.
It got to the point where he once told me,
"If I were ever to be with a man, I'd like to be with you."
My point is simple.
This gentleman crossed the line.
-He'd tell me... -But he changed, ma'am.
His self-esteem is through the roof now.
He'd say I needed more therapy
so I asked if it was fine for me to see another therapist
if him and me had any problems.
He said, "No, no. You can't stop coming"
I was nothing but a number to him, ma'am.
-And your name is? -Noris, ma'am.
-What's your story? -I'm livid, ma'am.
I could slap him right in the face.
He's ruined my life. Excuse me.
He helped me lose weight.
I gained a lot of weight during my pregnancy.
My husband of many, many years left me.
Excuse me.
I lost... Look.
-All three of them... -It worked.
But at what cost?
He made me think he loved me, but he lied.
He'd whisper sweet nothings in my ear, and for what?
To charge me for therapy.
Did you ever stop to think that maybe this type of therapy
lends itself to these kinds of situations?
You go see him in such a weak and vulnerable state,
and this kind of therapy,
which I don't understand the scientific concept of...
And I know the psychologists will tell me God knows what.
Bring them out, by the way.
Dr. Geysha Menendez, Mr. Williams Lucena...
We're nothing but pawns to him, ma'am.
All he wants is our money.
What's your name?
Marta.
I'd like you to watch a video before testifying.
Are you here on behalf of the defendant?
Yes.
Okay. Let's watch the video.
Look.
As you can see, that's my 26-year-old daughter.
She suffers from infantile cerebral palsy.
I can't tell you how much Mr. Alfredo has helped her.
She used to hate being touched, or having her hair brushed,
but Alfredo's changed all that.
She's an epileptic,
and has gone from five seizures a day to almost none.
He's very professional.
I've been seeing him for six months
and my daughter's already gotten a lot better.
Okay...
You're professionals.
You're psychologists who... went to school.
How scientifically proven is all this?
Has it been approved by universities?
What is it? Who came up with it?
How is it possible that people can profit from it?
In all honesty, this is not something that's taught
in any school as part of a psychologist's training.
Now, what is well known are the health benefits of hugging.
The physiologic reactions it creates in the body
have been studied,
but that doesn't mean it can be recommended.
I know I wouldn't recommend it to anybody since...
it's still not recognized by any universities.
Please bring out Dr. Leal.
Now, is it possible that this whole thing
can lead to something quite inappropriate?
Here's the problem.
There are two things we have to keep in mind.
One is the client's or the person's needs.
These people crave love and some kind of intimacy.
Not necessarily sex.
Second, the person who's doing the hugging
must be well trained
since the other person is going to transfer
all their energy to them.
The client will feel like this person
is giving them all the love they need,
which can lead to confusion.
He should've referred her.
He should've stopped her treatment,
if you can call it that.
Stop the session and stop the therapy altogether.
So, by getting coffee together,
acknowledging she was in love with him,
and not stopping the therapy...
-He crossed all boundaries. -Exactly.
That's what happens when these people
are not properly trained in the ethics of this business.
Now, Dr. Leal...
-Between the two of us... -Yes?
Even the most professionals out there
can end up messing up big time.
Do you remember the Barranco rule?
Yes.
A lawyer who had sex with his clients.
What happened?
His clients alleged that this was part
of what they considered necessary
in order to procure the best legal service possible
in order to protect their assets.
Law schools have banned this type of behavior
since it is presumed that it takes advantage of...
Its client's vulnerability. These people are vulnerable.
In psychotherapy, as psychologists,
we are trained in ethics
and how to deal with situations like this one
in a professional way.
If not, they could be very damaging.
To me, this whole thing is nothing more than a con.
It's a scam.
Human beings can get hugs from anybody.
Anybody!
All you have to do is ask.
But to charge for them?
To me, you're doing nothing but degrading hugs and love
to their lowest level.
I rule in your favor.
That's my ruling. Case closed!
