I don't think that he can renew his license. I believe there was a huge debacle about one of his patients back when he was actually a doctor and working at such. He did something to this patient who was mentally ill girl. I'm not sure what all happened but it didn't result in them revoking his license. They did their best to keep it under the table and so he just let it slip on purpose.
They had a male domestic survivor on Dr Phil and Phil called him a coward and the audience clapped… sickening!!!
😊😊 se
ToniBryanne-how do I do a video for you describing my experience on the Dr. Phil show? Because I know exactly how they do it, and why they do it, and what they do. I was a guest, and it was the most humiliating moment of my life! I literally almost lost family members over the lies that were told about us meaning my husband and myself! And I said this before, but for some reason, CZcams won’t let me edit it, his fans were calling me a gold digger on Google, and CZcams, and he made me look like I was a struggling useless housewife, who never had a singing career. When the truth was, for over 35 years, I have been a very established Canadian recording artist, show tour producer for the military, lead singer in bjornagain, an ABBA tribute band, endorsed by ABBA themselves, and I owned my own dinner theatre. I shut down the theatre because I now have chronic pain and didn’t want to keep performing. But, on the show, he made it look like I closed a successful business sarcastically. he made me look like a total loser. Please read my other comments about how they don’t ask you questions, they get you separated from the other person. If you’re with another person on the show, the first day of taping is them repeating phrases for you to repeat back on camera. you do not meet Dr. Phil before the show, you only meet him live on stage. He honestly was so confused about my husband and I since we were told we were coming for a completely different reason, he never even had an answer for us for the live audience. He just walked off stage and said I will deal with you too later. we never saw him again. He controls what is said on Google, CZcams, and other forums. Like I said, when I tried to defend myself, I would watch my sentences be deleted in the same minute that I was creating them. So obviously, they pay somebody a salary to be a computer technician on Google. I don’t know how they did that! I almost lost my family because of Dr. Phil. In my opinion, he has lost sight of what a real Christian should behave like. He’s full of pride, and has no humility at all. And because I’ve said this, on other comments, I will just finish it off with the fact that Dr. Phil is a ratings driven show, and the producers are 25 to 30 years old, speaking into an earpiece that is in Dr. Phil’s ear. Every time he looks like he’s concentrating, he is truly listening to what the producers are telling him to say. He’s just a pawn in the game of daytime television. And, if you read at the end of the show, it does say that what he says is for entertainment purposes only, and if anyone is struggling with real psychological issues to contact a local psychiatrist or physician. Something like that anyway.
I don’t understand why people applaud when he bullies his guests.
Lol cmon most of his audience members are old white people . Aka those who usually are the ones who feel like they are above addicts and teenagers
I know, so cringe
fr they're like
WOOO! Go Phil, you scold that very polite, mentally ill women for answering your question of why she's not feeling great!
they should be ashamed of themselves
Toni CZcams is really trying you because they have you looking super orange.
Honestly! It's so strange that people like to see others humiliated especially when there's real legal issues being presented.
that bailey clip was genuinely triggering jesus christ. two fully grown adults bullying and gaslighting a child essentially. i hope she’s doing alright.
It’s disgusting how even the media was siding with dr phill and degrading her. She clearly was very sick and needed help.
I haven’t been a fan of Dr. Phil for a while but the Bailey clip makes me sick to my stomach. Like how can you talk to her like that??
@@Dij7897 right? she’s clearly not mentally there and you can’t reason with somebody who isn’t mentally there that’s the whole purpose of getting them help. I was trying to get a follow up on the Bailey girl and every media news article were siding with Dr. Phil and praising him for how he “handled “ the “crazy” girl.
heartbreaking hearing her voice get smaller as the conversation goes on
Same! I never liked Dr. Phil, I've always hated the idea of putting troubled people on TV, not to help them, but to humiliate them. This clip is a huge example of that. FUCK Dr. Phil!!
That poor woman who asked that her bio mother not be there was treated horribly, listening to Dr Phil and his producer both gaslight and degrade her reminded me of abusive people I have dealt with in my own life, I hope she is doing better now ❤️
Dr phil gaslighting her 1 on 1 in front of a studio audience was disgusting enough, but when he brought out the producer so they could tag team gaslight her, no words for how gross that is.
Phil wasn’t even involved in the conversation between Stephanie and bailey, so how tf would he know what Stephanie told her? He wouldn’t. Yet, he had the nerve to say bailey was “living in fantasy land”. How ironic is that? A man who wasn’t even involved in a conversation is acting like he knew everything that was said, and yet, the one actually involved in the convo is the one “living in fantasy land”.
Yeah that was rough to watch.
Triangulation
She was a very sweet and polite young lady. Kept apologising. I think the staff member was lying.
You mean the blonde in red? Phil literally explained that - he said that HE decides who his guests are, not spoiled, entitled teenagers.
Just because she told him not to invite her mum doesn’t mean that he ever agreed to bend to her will - or had to.
He talks about his guests being narcissists, meanwhile he’s the biggest narcissist on stage.
That's what narcissists do best--project and gaslight
He's the definition of the pot calling the kettle black.
Definitely
The cruelty and insensitivity of the statement “you may live in fantasy land, but I do NOT” to a woman who has been going through some kind of psychosis/fractured vision of reality never ceases to anger me
The worst thing to do with someone like that is to play along.
@@MH-en9qc without playing along you can still treat them with respect and not ridicule them for their mental health issues.
You have to expose her to the truth you don’t feed delusions it doesn’t help the person it just make you feel virtuous
bro I do not understand those 2 replies. Like yeah, playing along is bad, but he was actively ridiculing her.
Like sir you are supposed to be a therapist, hello?
Dr Phil is a joke of a therapist and he unironically is also the most mentally ill of all his guests.
That is so horrible how they did that Bailey girl, and for Stephanie to look her dead in the eyes and lie to her face. Wow
Since when do producers not know what's going to happen on the show? Acting like that's a flex, that's unhinged.
Right? How demeaning...😮
I feel bad for Bailey and I hate the way how Dr.Phil was talking to her.
2 grown ass adults gaslighting this poor girl and getting applauded
Literally that was so gross
They bullied that girl who said she didn’t want her biological mom there. These ppl are trash
I wanted to give bailey a big hug
And guilted her for not wanting to... 🤢🤮
It’s so unfortunate that people really do turn to this man for help only to be ridiculed, exploited, or given unproven treatments. These shows have always been exploitative, we are just more aware of it now. I’m glad Danielle spoke out, I don’t think we’d know much about the ranch if it wasn’t for her.
Uhm they deserve it for thinking 💭 that they’ll get help on national television 🚩🚩🚩🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️💁🏽♀️💁🏽♀️🚩🚩
What??? Yes we would’ve if you ever watched his show because that’s who they have a contract with to do the outpatient treatment with 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️!!!!
@@angelaburress8586 No one deserves to be further punished for trusting the wrong people. I hope you get the help you clearly need without people taking advantage of your naïveté- and it's showing in 4k rn so don't bother telling me you aren't naive.
@@angelaburress8586 nah. Some people won't be able to make a rational decision. People who are not mentally well, and minors, for example. That would be enough on it's own to impact the guests decision to go on the show. But it's not unlikely that there is even more going on. So a guest who is both struggling mentally, and a minor, at the same time. So the guests are vulnerable, and unable to think logically. On top of that, the people behind the scenes at the show, like the producers, will at best misrepresent, at worst outright lie, to the already vulnerable guests, to make them think it will go a certain way. The guests are convinced they *are* going to get help. But the show is setting them up to create car crash TV.
On talent shows, the producers will often overhype the least skilled participants, to the point that they try to lead them to believe they are the best person they have seen, who has a strong chance of winning the show. So when they get to audition in front of the judges, and the judges react negatively, they will be more likely to argue back.
These shows are manipulative, and exploitative at the best of times. But in this case, on more than one occasion they've picked someone who is delusional, lied to them about what they will experience, and set them up.
They don't deserve it. They shouldn't have been set up in this way at all.
Some shows completely script ridiculous segments. I think Jerry Springer used to do this.
This is completely irresponsible.
@@angelaburress8586are you dumb? they mean we would have never known what really goes on at the ranch.
This is why I stopped watching talk shows. Dr. Phil, Oprah, Tyra Banks, Ellen, etc. As I got older, I saw they were very condescending to some of guests they were “helping” or “having an open discussion” with. It was so cringey and unwarranted
I never liked them shows😂
YEP, I stopped too. I used to constantly watch them because I used to stay at my great grandma’s house a lot and that was all I can watch. But, around high school I started seeing these shows in a different light and I don’t watch those shows at all.
Nah, some of these people are awful.
Well the ones with celebrities I sometimes watch but only Watch it for the celebrities but not often
Ellen is the absolute worst. She bullied and belittled her guests until they yelled/left/cried. And then used their reactions for more popularity. And everyone thought she was great just because she is an "icon lesbian". As someone who is also queer, i say fuck that and fuck her
About the Bailey girl, i swear I remember seeing a video about her time on the show a few years ago titled something like “Dr Phil DESTROYS spoiled brat” (it had to be something like that), i never watched the video so I just assumed she was acting snobby, but now seeing the clip, i can tell that she was just setting boundaries for herself that were honestly pretty understandable, but Dr Phil turned it around and made it seem like she was being the unreasonable one, when in reality she was actually being pretty realistic
If you had of watched the episode Bailey had major issues and was brought on the show because she thought that she was in love with someone she hadn't actually met and was basically stalking them - sending messages etc and wouldn't stop.
@@amandamandamands I didn’t watch the episode in full, she clearly needs help to work out her issues but the way Dr Phil was addressing her wasn’t the way it should’ve been approached
Yes! They took a clip, labelled it as exactly that & only watched the bailey episode by chance last night. & I cannot believe just how RUTHLESS & cruel media can really be.
My bachelor’s degree is in forensic psychology, and we actually had a lesson about Dr. Phil and few crime story victims that he’s had on his show. He may have the credentials as far as schooling, but our professor taught us he is not licensed anywhere to practice psychology. Which is a requirement if you are going to be evaluating them. If my memory serves me right, he actually got the boot and his license was revoked in a certain State.
Omg how interesting I knew he wasn’t licensed to practice but the fact that he got away with it on tv for so long is so serious he caused damage to so many of the guest he had. I’m also looking to major in forensic psychology
@@monceeherrera-rizo2371 Yeah the man is super unethical, and it is not up to the psychologist to judge the clients they work with. Your analysis is strictly supposed to be based on what’s the best course of action to help relieve this person or better understand why they do what they do so you can help them realize certain things about themselves. It’s not supposed to be hateful, at all! But forensic psych is an awesome course, it’s going to differ obviously based on school and what you choose to do with it. But I enjoyed it.
Oh my God. His fame can really trick people into thinking he was something he never was. At least never licensed to practice.
@@antiableismhe was. He just stopped renewing his license in the early 2000s.
He actually worked off his supervision order (got that earlier in his career than the trial science stuff) and chose not to renew his licence when the show took off - never moved it from Texas to California either (double checked first that he didn't need it and his show is considered entertainment, not therapy). I notice that when I used to watch the show he would say that I can't diagnose but if I was evaluating you these things would be on my short list.
The situation of the girl and her biological mother was very badly handled in my opinion. I don't see any disrispect in the way she spoke. Only a response to a request she made for personal reasons.
I know, acting like he has the right to chasten her and act like she's a whiny brat. Ridiculous.
fr he literally asked why she wasn't doing well and she answered. After that it was all yes sir, yes ma'am, and he keeps going like she's even arguing! He's acting like he's the one in need of help, having an argument with no one.
it's like... what's the point of being kind if you're still going to be treated with disrespect? she was so polite and he still belittled her and bullied her... the fact that the audience clapped, regardless of whether or not they were told to, is sickening and gross.
If I was Bailey I would've worn that censor out and then walked off the stage. I can't stand seeing someone talk down to another human being like that. He's a terrible person.
Dr Phil infantilized her too. I believe Bailey was 19 or 20, but in any case she was a legal adult and this whole “if your mother isn’t here then you’re not here” is so demeaning and patronizing for an adult woman who is clearly struggling
Todd was exploited 100%, I remember watching that show & I was utterly disgusted!
The way Bailey was treated was horrific, it was purposeful humiliation for entertainment of a 21yo, no benefits to that young women! I always thought & got the impression a lot of guests were brought on that show under false pretenses; the ratings of the show came before any benefit to the "guests"!
What he did to Shelley Duvall was unforgivable. My sister has had traumatic brain injury and mini strokes. Sometimes in conversations she wanders off paths and I just play along. The thought of her being exploited for views/money leaves me speechless.
Not trying to diminish what happened to her, but today Shelley is back in a movie! She’s always wanted to be an actress/artist, so I’m trying to spread the word to everyone who loves her so her victim status becomes secondary to her talent, and this movie gets the press it deserves!!
@@gryein7223 Unconventional marketing strategy, but good goal! I hope it goes/went well for her.
The way he spoke to Bailey is disgusting. There’s no way he’s a licensed psychologist speaking to people like that. There was no compassion, I had to skip past it. It made me sick.
He isn't licenced, stopped renewing it in 2006 after his show was a definite hit so he didn't need it anymore. Looking at his history he never was a great therapist, that was a contributing reason for him getting into trial science.
I can’t believe parents would send their children to those programs. No bad behavior is worth sending your child to a whole other state in the middle of nowhere where they could be potentially abused
People also send their kids to boarding and military schools smh
If all you know about the places are their website and the spruiking that Dr Phil did for them (not only on the show but in actual commercials too) then you would think that it is a great place, sure sounded like it when Dr Phil would talk about it on the show.
Most parents aren't properly educated on the circumstances and are told that their child's experiences will be much better than they really are. A lot of times the parents mean well and genuinely want to help their children, but it ends up doing a lot more harm than good. These programs frequently lie to parents and just tell them what they want to hear.
Because they were misguided by a man who puts Dr. in front of his name
As someone who's been through mental health struggles and also studied/has a passion for psychology, I can't stand "Dr." Phil. What he does is so unethical and cruel. It also gives the public an awful impression of what effective therapy actually looks like, so that people who actually need help may be scared away from therapy altogether. Thank you for talking about this!
I haven’t watched him since like middle school. I thought his show was a joke like Maury or Jerry. People going up there just to get famous. It started to happen when he would bring more ridiculous stories to his show. That’s really overshadowing the point of the whole therapist attraction and I can see why that’s made by design. ‘ so the next generation or the generation above us can go oh don’t you see how Dr. Phil treats people on TV? Why would you ever want to go to a therapist and then it would have other people thinking going to a therapist is not as productive as you will think. ‘ this stuff is hurting us. We don’t realize it until now. At least that’s good.
I heard his licence was revoked
BABHCMII for my state. I've had people tell me what I do is fake. I work with people who are severely disabled mentally. They see me to learn basics.
@@lmusima3275 yeah, in 2006, he found the loophole that he can still do what he does because he’s doing it publicly
why is no one talking about the boy that died and his parents werent notified for FOUR YEARS!! That is the most insane thing ive heard in my entire life.
Wait what
Why do people send their kids to those types of facilities tho
@@therealnelly01 because people don't tell them the full story of how the program works
like how do you not check on your kid for 4 years??
@@xyhvlmixk They don't let them have contact and the staff/head office just send out progress reports or fob off parents if they are enquiring how their child is going.
Once during psychology class in college, the professor showed us clips from 'the dr Phil show' and told us that this is how you DON'T communicate to your patients/clients.
8:47 I think the worse thing about this is the fact they had a breathe test ready. They knew what they were doing. They knew they were going to try and ruin his soberness.
Only he can ruin it, what are you talking about? It’s called accountability!
No they get them drunk before the show😢😢
4 YEARS??! I thought you were going to say 4 months. His parents truly did not give a damn about him. I don't think anybody who would send their child to this really gives a damn about their child even if they claim that they do.
I was mortified myself at that. I thought she was going to say four hours! If not hours, days at the very most. Both would be too long in opinion as I would expect an immediate phone call if my child fainted. I have two sons and I CAN'T IMAGINE!! Poor kid. My heart breaks for him just thinking about the love that he was never shown. I hope he's at peace and surrounded by lots of love ❤
I thought, she was going to say 4 days! 4 years is crazy!!!
The Bailey clip was absolutely atrocious. Had my heart beating so fast. Two grown adults bullying and gaslighting a child.
I’m so pissed after watching that! I won’t even watch another clip after that. I’ve been disgusted with him before but THAT! The. After she cries, cause he Ms bullying a child. He gaslit her!!! I feel so bad that I ever contributed to his success by watching him.
She should have left off the stage!
Ugh. Todd’s story makes me so emotional. I was a huge fan when he was on Survivor. Then seeing him on the Dr. Phil Show like this was devastating. He seems like such an amazing person inside and out. I am so happy he turned his life around!!!
He wasn’t ready to be there at all. I’m wondering if there was any professional person who’s experienced in treating people with alcohol addiction
My sister was on dr Phil after being kidnapped for 29 days. He promised to help her get the therapy/counseling she needed. After he intervened her he sent her to tx to see a therapist for ONE day and we never heard from him/his team again. He uses people trama as clout/for views.
The one with Bailey legitimately hurt to watch. This young girl tried to stand up for her boundaries (which is so so hard for young women/ppl to do) and she got shut down and humiliated so hard that I wouldn't ne surprised if she was too scared to stand up for herself again in the future. Absolutely deplorable behavior from both adults
She was entitled and rude
@NicoleCalhoun-lj6mp She needed medical help. You clearly don't have compassion for other people, so why are you watching this video? Go watch Dr. Phil if you want your opinions validated.
10:24 “nobody tells me who to put on my show, if you think you’re entitled enough to tell me what to do-.”
Yeah, Dr. Phil, and who are you to be entitled enough to hurt people like that? God, it’s so ugly to see him and that lady go at her like that. Absolutely sickening.
I hope Bailey is doing okay now
She was rude and entitled and those attitudes must not be entertained . She was just awful
@@NicoleCalhoun-lj6mp Doctor Phil was worse. He's supposed to conduct himself in a professional manner, and he almost never does - his attitude > her attitude.
@@NicoleCalhoun-lj6mp She just said she didn't want her mom there you must be the lady that had that hideous look on her face while explaining her concerns away
@@KateCat420 She didn't have an attitude Nichole is just foolish
As someone who is an alcoholic and just came off a two day hard binge…that makes me so mad about Todd. If I’m withdrawing and physically sick (if you’ve ever been through withdrawal knows you get desperate. Even if you don’t want it, even if you want to be sober with everything in you…if you leave me unattended with a bottle of alcohol during withdrawals, I’m drinking it. I’m also taking anything you give me honestly. Anything to make the withdrawal ease up.
As an alcoholic myself, you've got to be careful about not drinking. Withdrawal from alcohol can kill you. I ease myself down.
There have been a few guest who put Dr. Phil in his place, and he backed off. I wish I could find those episodes, but one woman asked him, what is this a bullying session, and he backed off.
the way they spoke to Bailey was absolutely insane. i felt like i was the one being reprimanded, they treated her like a toddler. you could hear her trying not to cry in front of all those people, i feel so bad for her.
It’s already pretty weird of someone to claim to help people and then also put everyone’s issues on a show. It’s not just weird but also absolutely disgusting to make a show out of real people struggling in life for other entertainment.
I strongly agree
Essentially he's doing it to make money...for the fame and power. Disgusting.
Bailey set a very clear boundary, they had to go out of their way to cross that boundary. They do everything for views.
"Dr" Phil is an interrogator NOT a psychologist. After I had watched his shows a few times I really felt sorry for anyone who may have gone to him for help. He is just a bully.
I’d love to hear from Dr. Phil producers who left the show.
The whole Bailey situation was clearly planned out, they went way overboard and hard on that issue to prove their narrative that she was a spoiled entitled brat. That was exactly what they wanted it to look like and they succeeded. He got the applause from the audience that looked like he stuck it to her and put her in her place. The producer was damn near tripping over her words because she knew she was wrong.
And look how big their eyes got. Whenever people do that I assume they’re lying and are hoping that you believe them
Watching the part with Bailey around 13 minutes was so tough to watch 😥
Stephanie and Phil worked 16 years manipulating people who are hurting
I have a masters in psychology and can say that Dr.Phil’s show is primarily based on entertainment, most of these people who come on his show are extremely vulnerable and being exposed on tv like this is extremely disturbing and can further severe their situation
I know a young couple who was on the show several years ago, and the producers out and out lied right to their faces! Disgusting! And his wife makes me sick! 🤮
Glad he’s been cancelled!
I grew up watching Shelley Duvall’s Faerie Tale Theatre series. There was something about her presence that always gave me comfort. Maybe it was her sweet nature and soft voice, maybe it was simply her involvement with the series. As you can imagine, I was pissed as hell when I saw Dr. Phil exploiting her illness like that. It’s disgusting!
I definitely think he’s exploiting people. I think he became a doctor to initially help people but as fame and fortune grew, he has become a tv personality for viewers and is drunk on clout 😂
No no no his friends has said dr phil always was a bullly long before he became a doctor.
I actually fear that some people will think this is what therapy is like and never ask for help because of him. As a psych student, what he does is not ethical at all and not what a relationship with a psychologist should look like ever
Thanks you for touching on this subject! Content like his honestly makes me pissed as someone who is trying to work in the psychological field. When we see big tv personalities abusing their guests like this for the sake of the treatment of patients with mental health issues, it just perpetuates the idea that getting help for your mental health is a bad or negative thing. We already have to fight so hard for the normalization of getting mental health help, and seeing someone abuse their position as a mental health professional is sickening.
Let's be real who has dr phil successfully help
That Nicole Bregandi turned the tables and cashed her appearance into a career in music. She’s worth a couple of million bucks.
@@cynthiaking5308 but because of him she was send to a camp to fix her were she got assaulted
He helped bhad bhabie get popular if that counts.. 😶🤢
Dr. Phil has pretty successfully helped Dr. Phil.
@@cynthiaking5308 Yeah, she actually did really well for herself. She's smart. I think she's on OF, too. She makes tons of money and invests wisely. It's crazy. Good for her.
“He tries to give them respect” respect is something you either do or don’t do
Minute 12:16, I believe the producer told her, her mom wasn’t going to be there. I also believe Dr. Phill had no idea what she was talking about and the mom was always going to be there. I think the producers lied.
Its disgusting to see him publicly berate a young girl thinking he’s in the right when she clearly stated her boundaries
If one of Dr. Phil's guests confronted him on his own shady past I would pay money to see him backed into a corner and bullied the same way he does to his guests
To me there's nothing more devastating than trusting someone and having that trust betrayed.
I was listening to Sinead O'Connor's audiobook. After what she said about him, it led me down this rabbit hole about how horrible Dr. Phil is. Toni, thank you so much for making this video.
Dr. Phil is terrible…he needs to be exposed! Thanks for this video ❤️
I always got a bad vibe from dr Phil, but that episode with Shelly Duvall was the last straw for me. I remember that I was honestly shocked at how happily he was exploiting someone who was in such a bad state as she was and essentially humiliating her for the whole world to see. The fact that he's still going even after that seriously blows my mind. There are so many problems with that man.
there's the one lady on tiktok who was on his show after her "friend" planned to cut her baby out of her and he was victim blaming so hard the whole time it's terrible
as a aspiring clinical psychologist, dr phil makes me sick. it would be great to have a daytime show that brings awareness to mental illnesses because it could help eliminate stigma. unfortunately, dr phil ruins any positive potential with his style of interrogation and harassment.
I feel so badly for Todd. They set him up! That was disgusting and degrading and purposeful. Evil.
I’m literally gonna start crying after hearing about the two people that died and the family not being notified for 4 YEARS FOUR GODDAMN YEARS
not him gaslighting the people he brought on the show. so incredibly messed up
I am a psychology grad student! We have talked about Dr Phil and his lack of respect for human beings and ethical behavior such as confidentiality.
As far as him being a doctor, technically he would still be a doctor due to his PhD. However, his lack of license does not allow him to practice therapy. Because to practice therapy, you have to adhere by ethical guidelines which include confidentiality, not imposing values on clients, and not discriminating. Dr Phil has to refer the guests to an actual licensed therapists because he does not have one.
Also, at the beginning of the show there has to be a disclaimer that reads that this show is for “entertainment purposes” because actual therapy would not look like what the Dr. Phil show is!
I have also noticed that towards the end of the episode he will quite often say that I can't diagnose you but if I did these would be on my short list. The way that he says it makes it seem like it is because he hasn't spent enough time with them rather than legally he can't do it.
If I was that girl, I WOULD have left. Who does he think he is?!
Dr. Phil is like that teacher that we hated in high school.
His show is still ongoing! How he’s not being sued is beyond me.🙄
A psychiatrist always shows empathy and understanding with a client. Phil, on the other hand, shows apathy and seems to think their problem can be solved with a scolding. I remember I got furious when, instead of reprimanding the female abuser, he yelled at the male abuse victim for defending himself. I then came to the conclusion that Phil does NOT care about these people.
I’m sorry but how did those parents NOT know their kid died 4 YEARS later????? Like did they forget they had a child???
Those 'camps' don't let the parents talk to their child, the contact info that the parents had could have been giving them generic info and who knows if the people that the parents talk to even knew who any of the kids were
Dr. Phil don’t respect anybody on his damn show. He’s rude, he constantly talks over them and doesn’t let them speak. It’s sad that it’s taken this long for the truth about him to be recognized.
Phil talking to that girl who was asking about her bio mom was so out of pocket.. I genuinely was thinking to myself 'stfu already what is your problem?' like my god chill tf out no one needs to hear from Stephanie
"I'm the least judgemental person I've ever met" says Mr Phil constantly. Unless you have any involvement in sex work or polyamory. Among other things.
I could tell y’all some horror stories.. but he put me and my sister (former addicts) in a diff hotel room on a diff floor than my mom and ex step dad… and we met not 1 not 2 but THREE ppl IN THE HOTEL w different drugs…… first thing he asked of us when we went to taping was a drug test.. like he knew it would be dirty. He’s a predator. Period.
I asked him not to air the results and it was the FIRST thing that he did when I came out to stage…… it was humiliating….. I wanted to call his a$$ out bc I wouldn’t have been dirty if the hotel didn’t make drugs so accessible 😭 it’s like he knew that bc we were there for so long before taping… that I wouldn’t be dirty unless he helped move things into the narrative he wanted… honest to God.
At this point. We need a surviving doctor Phill show 😮
I was on his show. He traumatized MY ENTIRE FAMILY ‼️‼️‼️‼️ I tell everyone who he is. He exploits everyone on his show to make a living. He takes our real life traumas and mistakes, airs them to the world in the most dramatic way to make it look SO MUCH WORSE….. he’s corrupt and orange in person 😒
I appreciate you saying alcoholism is a disease. Not many people are educated on this matter.
Talk about making a guest feel guilty if they walk off. She wasn’t acting like he couldn’t control who was on his show but no therapist is going to trigger a patient like that.
Apparently he didn’t renew his license in order to cover his ass. He could’ve been sued like 10x over by now if he was still licensed
As an old person who remembers 😂 it wasn’t really ‘a case that Oprah was working on’ She got sued by ranchers for disparaging beef. She did win though
The podcast Maintenance Phase did an episode about it recently that's worth a listen!
he's exploiting folks for sure, so sad..this reminds me of the true crime debates that have been going around lately..with folks talking about how annoyed they are that a lot of true crime CZcamsrs, podcasters, etc..are doing it for exploitative purposes.
Yeah. There's one channel I watch that's genuinely respectful to the victims, Elanore Neal (Probably spelled it wrong, sorry)
@@ActuallyAShrimp oh yeah I like her
Another thing Dr.Phil did was let this one trans woman by the name of Diamond consistently get misgendered by her very transphobic brother. He didn’t think to consider that her mental health issues were because of living in such an unsupportive household with a family member that doesn’t choose to respect her identity, and he put her on full blast for everyone to see. It’s just so uncomfortable to watch him blatantly ignore any other factors that could lead Diamond to acting out and just blame it on her not “trying hard enough to be a better person”. It’s important that people DO put in the work to become better people and get a better life, but to me Dr.Phil always takes to victim blaming.
Which is a thing Dr. Phil does very often, he constantly blames mental health issues that people have, on the people themselves, saying they don’t try hard enough and aren’t putting in the work. He doesn’t want to give logical advice to help them, doesn’t even name any places to give them the help they’re seeking, he just humiliates these people in front of a crowd that will unconditionally support him and whatever he says.
Dr. Phil offers his guests 10k to go on his show. That could change depending on how badly he wants someone to appear on. I know this firsthand since his producers reached out to a friend of mine a few years ago wanting her and her daughter to go on the show. Her teenage daughter had a 10 second Snapchat video go viral not for a good reason. She declined the offer but they tried really hard so that they could capitalize off the attention the video was receiving. That was when I started doing more research into Dr. Phil and his guests. I was shocked to find out what a scammer he is. The reason the show is even called “Dr. Phil” is because it’s illegal to call yourself Dr. (Last Name) if you don’t currently have an active medical license. Dr. Phil never renewed his license after a sexual assault allegation were brought forward from a past employee of his. That’s when why leaned hard into the tv personality world instead. We can all thank Oprah for that one! 🤦🏼♀️
Many therapists and psychologists have come out against him and his unethical ways of treating his guests. I’m glad the public is becoming more aware of this.
And how he treated that poor girl on his show. Gaslighting her by trying to convince her that his producer never said that, when she knows that she did. They will say anything they can to get you on. He’s disgusting and has no respect for other peoples boundaries!
Glad that Todd seems healthy and happy!!!💖I hated that episode so much, and I wondered where he got the liquor from…
Okay, that clip that involved Bailey really has my blood BOILING. How DARE--👏🏽HOW👏🏽FREAK👏🏽ING👏🏽DARE he talk to her like that!
I got a robocall when I was on vacation in Egypt! It was so annoying. Regarding Dr Phil I always felt he was a bully and often felt he was enabling certain behaviors. He claimed he was helping but he was doing the opposite.
It’s good to see this breakdown of Dr Phil because I’ve been thinking the exact same thing. Not only does something not feel right about the show but most times it’s blatantly obvious that Dr Phil is exploiting and humiliating the guests on his show for ratings. He often avoid questions that would really get to to bottom of some of the issues of his guests or he will totally manipulate situations.
Omf all of that made me so uncomfortable. Hope Bailey is well. So glad Todd pulled thru. They damn near killed him then humiliated him and further Annihilated his reputation for tv…
I’m sorry but that clip where he is ripping her apart for asking why her mother was there was heartbreaking. She was nothing but respectful and he publicly humiliated her and put words and intentions into her mouth.
Your skin is glowing✨
I remember Nicolette Gray did a docu series on her channel about the truth of her experience on the show
what was that about? can you tell me? because i remember nicolette being on the show and crying about not getting an expensive car for her birthday or something.... only for her mom to buy her one right after so i honestly don't know if there's anybody dr phil has helped
She admitted most of her behavior was an act for the show. In my opinion I think she is still incredibly entitled, but the diva persona she put on she claims was all made up
This show and others like it feel like modern day “freak shows” that make a spectacle of those with emotional troubles. Unfortunately society takes mental illness less seriously than physical illness. I really hope that the Dr. Phil show is no longer running.
10:13 -- That is downright cruel that Dr Phil and his staff would give their word on something like this and then back out at the last moment and make her look like a fool for believing him. :( And my God did he and especially his staff member give off such a wide eyed condescending vibe... :(
I mentioned him to my bf once just randomly… my bf who is a real doctor… said don’t call him that, he’s not a real doctor 😅
It’s very wild to me how the American government will allow these shows to last. Oh wait. Because there friends… Most sitcom host were college students with some elite peoples kids and ended up having a show. Or they worked in a higher place before then. A good example is Ned from Try Guys and how his producer buddies put together a sketch about the scandal over his affair and put it on the late night show or Jerry Springer working for the gov and then becoming a host to his own show and wearing fake glasses. It’s all made by design.
I'm so glad this is finally being talked about. Such a good video!! 👍
Thank you so much!!
The content lately is golden 🏅
Im so happy your talking about this its so cruel
Dr Phil “ who is actually NOT a DR” in my opinion is a Narcissist..
If this is true regarding the Todd situation, this is absolutely abuse. 🤲🏽💜
I have a hard time thinking anyone worth that much is in anyone a good person. The best people I know are broke because they are doing for others 24/7. Dude sold his soul for his millions.
❤Thank you for doing this vid! Instead of going along with the shows narrative which is to humiliate ppl for ratings, you showed that these are REAL ppl with real problems and they should get help, not being degrading & used for money & exploitation. Love this vid!❤❤
i love how Stephanie starts protesting before she's fully out there.
sis out here giving the look you give your sibling when you don't want them to tell your mom something bad
Great vid Toni, I knew he was bad but I had no idea how bad. Those poor people 😢
Loving your content lately
Hi my brother was on dr Phil:(, it has damaged him and he wishes he was able to take down the episode as he wasn’t able to consent because he was going through mental health crisis
They were so wrong for giving that first guy alcohol and then gaslighting and being mean to that young woman. Those tactics were simply inhumane. Especially calling them and embarrassing them on national tv.
He did the cherry on top for me when he called Jimin a "manufactured image" dehumanising idols further than they were already!
Idols do have manufactured images in all fairness- that's part of what makes the industry so awful, they aren't allowed to be their full selves.
@@sourgreendolly7685 yes and so does every other celebrities and brands. But we always only focus on kpop idols for some reason and context matters! He was specifically referring to Jimin's facial features and it was rather dehumanising and implying they were all "fake" anyway.
it was giving jealousy
@@ohsehundinfiresman9726 he was really right tho your letting your fanboying think for you lol
