Warning! Scott C Redman (aka Scott Curtis Redman, Scottie Redman, Scott C Redman, PhD) is NOT a psychologist or any other kind licensed psycholherapist. He has been ordered by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation to cease and desist the unlicensed practice of psychology. See link below to the June 2014 Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation disciplinary reports.

http://www.idfpr.com/forms/discpln/2014_06enf.pdf

Just scroll down to psychology in the PDF from the state site to read the report of the state order.

Mr. Redman has used fake license numbers and the license number of a real Illinois psychologist who resides in Delaware. He has been added to the Office of the Inspector General of The United States excluded provider list after earlier surrender of a counselor intern registration in Florida.

In Florida, it was found that Mr. submitted phony educational credentials and "fraudulent" school transcripts in applying for a counselor license.

Here is the finding and the order from Florida state regulators: http://ww2.doh.state.fl.us/DocServiceMngr/GetImage.aspx?documentid=MTQzMTE4MTQ=&enc=1

The finding of fraud reads as follows in Florida:

"SCOTT C. REDMAN, MHCI, has attempted to obtain a license, registration or certificate under this chapter by fraudulent misrepresentation. SCOTT C. REDMAN, MHI, submitted an Intern Registration Application to the Board of CSW, MFT and MHC on August 29, 2009, in which he listed a graduate degree from Kaplan University. In addition, he submitted a transcript from Kaplan University with an Orlando, Florida address. It has been discovered that the transcript submitted by SCOTT C. REDMAN, MHCI, was fraudulent as Kaplan University does not offer a Master of Arts Degree in Forensic Psychology."

If Mr. Redman or his proxies appear to deny any of this, follow the links above to the official state websites. He has claimed that the fraudster in Illinois is not the same man as the fraudster in Florida. Both, however, have the same first middle and last names, both have the same birthdate 6-5-79, both have used the same NPI number and photos on the web from his Illinois activities and his personal photos show that Mr. Redman of Florida and Mr. Redman of Illinois are one and the same person.

After selling his home and leaving the state of Florida in May 2011, Mr. Redman recommenced practice in Illinois, posing as an Illinois licensed psychologist, this time claiming a PhD from Walden University. There is no evidence that Mr. Redman earned this degree and considering his actions in Florida, there is every reason to suspect that he once again claimed a fictitious degree. In any case, Walden's program is not properly accredited for consideration for psychologist licensure in Illinois. An inconvient fact this con man overlooked when he selected a degree to perpetrate his fraud.

Mr. Redman subsequently engaged in an elaborate hoax, advertising on therapist finder websites, claiming years of experience treating a wide range of problems, including problems of adults and children. Someone also posted obviously fabricated positive reviews of on doctor rating sites. There were reviews that say that Dr. Redman has been a wonderful psychologis who has helped many people do not come from psychotherapy patients because privacy and confidentiality laws prevent patients from knowning about their therapists cases.

Mr. Redman had also fraudulently obtained an NPI number (National Physicians' Identifier) from CMs/Health and Human Services, which does not check the validity of applications for NPI numbers. Redman received his number in 2009. At some point he modified his NPI information to read that he is an Illinois Licensed Psychologist. He included a fictitious license number on his NPI page. On September 4, 2014, as he was rapidly being exposed as a fraud for the second time during his fraudulent career, he changed his NPI information again, removing the phony license number and psychologist designation. He is now simply listed as a community health worker with no license. It's a meaningless designation tha does not qualify a provider for any independent professional health practice.

You must follow the links I provided to see that I am being 100% truthful about the state regulatory board orders from Illinois and Florida. You must search the OIG site using his name to find the excluded provider decision.

I am posting this because Mr. Redman is erasing his electronic trail, and the ratings sites that previously had the information about his fraud are removing all reviews. Since he isn't a real therapist, psychologist. Given Scott Curtis Redman's history of getting caught in Florida and simply moving to another state to resume his fraud, and given the considerable lengths Mr. Scott C Redman went to in order to conceal his fraud and continue his illegal practice, it is not unreasonable to assume that he may simply move to yet another state and try to start all over with his con game, with most of the electronic trail erased. By posting this review, I hope that any prospective "patients" will in future be able to read and follow links I provided to check on Mr. Redman's con game should he resume. You should know, as well that he blames all of this on former colleagues out to get him or mistaken identity. Follow the links.

Finally, there is a real and apparently legitimate Scott C Redman in Lake Havasu, Utah. He is a real, legitimate Occupational Therapist. That man has a different birthday, personal history and occupation. An occupational theraist is not at all the same as a psychotherapist, psychotherapy counselor, social worker or Marriage/family counselor. The problem of fraud involves Scott Curtis Redman, (dob x-x-79).

I knew it! Scott Redman was a fraud.

I was a patient of Scot Redman from August 2013 to February 2014. I had doubts when I first met him but thought it was just my reluctance to seeking help. by January 2014 I began to have serious doubts about him based on his unprofessional behavior such as how he would tell me about other patients issues and the crazy advice he would give me. I really should have known or checked him out beforehand. Especially when he told me he didn't go through insurance providers and usually wanted cash payments. I stopped seeing him and found someone else because too many red flags were raised. I need to sue him for every payment I provided him. too bad I didn't get receipts from him. This shows me that I need to
