Introduction To A Critical Review of Dr. Phil's Advice

If you want to look at how illogical the psychology industry is you only need to watch the most popular psychology show on television, The Dr. Phil Show. One of the most amazing aspects of Dr. Phil's belief is that he comments in his relationship book, Relationship Rescue, that he has not helped a single couple resolve a single conflict in twenty-five years of practice.

Of course, his fame is a direct result of his association with Oprah Winfrey, but that doesn't mean that he has any better tools for helping patients than any other of the practicing psychologists who have studied Freud's work, where he concluded that we are born with our mental problems and there is nothing that can be done about it.

As part of this web sites effort at showing you how illogical marital therapy is today we will add reviews of his particular shows as they are aired and articles as they are published.
