Apparently Ophra had him on a show and thought he was great enough to have his own talk show.

I think "Dr. Phil" is just kind of his stage name. He probably has a Bachelor of Arts in daytime drama or something. Not that that makes him any less good at what he does.

Dr. Phil has a B.A. from Midwestern State University and an M.A. and Ph.D. in clinical psychology from North Texas State University with a dual area of emphasis in clinical and behavioral medicine.

He has his degree in Philosophy - not psychology and yes, Oprah was very impressed with him. She met him years ago when he helped thru the court trial with the cattle ranchers who sued her. She was found innocent.....of course.

He claims to know more then anybody - he hoodwinked Oprah! As far as education that is another question....
