He's not an attorney. He's a Ph.D.-level clinical psychologist who owned a firm, Courtroom Sciences, that did psychological consulting for law firms and trials for many years before he met Oprah and became a media "darling."

He's no idiot, but he is a shameless self-promoter and he doesn't really approach psychology from anything other than a surface, TV-show angled approach, but I suppose that's what his job has morphed into. In this area of Texas, which is where he used to live before he moved to Beverly Hills, there are numerous people in the legal, academic and medical communities who've worked with him, which is not said to be an easy thing to do.
