Dr. Phil: Exposed

I've always wondered what tv personality Dr. Phil's credentials were, so after seeing a commercial for his talk show, I decided to look him up on wikipedia.

Wow. What a load of interesting controversies. I definitely will not watch his show ever. Or take anything he says seriously.

Of note: As of 2008, he is not licensed to practice psychology in Texas, California, or anywhere else because a girl claimed he had a sexual relationship with her while he was her psychologist and he has not met the Texas' Board requirements to undergo ethics class, physical and psychological evaluation and supervision for 1 year.

Also -sounds like he's a crock and has stolen his material from Thelma Box and her "Pathways" seminars.

If you ever watched Dr. Phil before, do me a favor and make sure to switch the channel the next time he comes on.
