Affair puts ex-Sidwell psychologist’s license at risk

Published



D.C. officials are reviewing the license of a former Sidwell Friends School psychologist who had an affair with the married mother of a 5-year-old student he was allegedly counseling. The D.C. Department of Health’s board of psychology will decide whether to revoke, suspend or further investigate the license of James “Jack” Huntington at its closed meeting Thursday, said spokeswoman Dena Iverson.

A phone call to the psychology board in Maryland, where Huntington is also licensed to practice, was not immediately returned Friday evening.
