WATCH THE FULL EPISODE ON YOUTUBE MYTHBUSTERS: Is Dr. Cheyenne Bryant Really a Doctor? Licensed Clinical Psychologist Doctor TK breaks down the truth about Argosy University, honorary doctorates, therapist titles, doctorate requirements, and California licensure law. The Dr. Cheyenne Bryant conversation opened up a much bigger question across the mental health community: who can legally call themselves a doctor, therapist, or psychologist in California? In this live stream, I am answering the top questions that came up in over 500 comments on our last episode. We are breaking down what California state regulations actually say about doctoral degrees, what an honorary doctorate really means, and why protecting these titles protects the public.
