Came across a listserv that she passed away today.

Yeah, ISTSS made an announcement as well. Now I'll be sad everytime I show patients that Dateline video.

This is the only Dateline video that I can remember off the top of my head

We don't necessarily show it anymore, though. Updates to the protocol have made the educational video optional. Also, I've always wondered about Sherry and how she's doing!

Really sad to learn this. I know she has been celebrated in many parts of the psychology community but in some ways she went underappreciated - I always felt like she should be considered one of the titans of the field. PE, and her work on exposure in general (i.e., E-RP, DBT-PE) has helped thousands to heal. She was still involved with research last year at 88 years old!
