I personally think Judy Byington is pretty trusted. I don't know why they would categorize it as disinformation. She has been written about quite a bit by others as well and that is all on the internet. Dr. Phil is also associated with her. This site also says Child Abuse can be cured I think they mean, not in the pedophile sense. Helping those that are not. Also they deal with repressed memories and those have been attacked by the psychiatric community, so maybe it is for that reason.
I believe the treatment they refer to as a "cure" for victims of ritual abuse is neurofeedback, which is state of the art right now. I once worked professionally with a prominent psychologist who spearheaded this modality and has published about it. He was also one of the nation's experts on ritual abuse. Long story, but because of what I know, Byington has likely interfaced with him.
People have to be careful, there is a place in St. Louis area called Castlewood and they are not good. They have shut down and opened up in Cal. I believe there may even be lawsuits.
Oh crap. Sorry to hear that, but I know places like this can be traps. I believe MK ULTRA programs were actually carried out in psych hospitals years ago...

I had never heard of Castlewood. Is this what you're referring to (treatment center for eating disorders)? http://www.castlewoodtc.com/
The doctor I'm referring to (diagnostician and neurofeedback expert for ritual abuse victims) is in the Intermountain West. So is Byington.

Yes that's it! If you look deeper at what the lawsuits are, the girls talk about all kinds of strange dreams connected to their treatment.

That is what I and @Wolftrail7272 believed. I should check on how the lawsuits turned out.
