The Yale University psychology professor who called in her conclusion that President Trump was mentally impaired was recently criticized for ignoring well-established protocol. She made her diagnosis without ever actually examining the president. Now she faces additional criticism for another professional faux pas.
It appears that Professor Bandy Lee is not currently licensed to practice psychology in her own state of Connecticut.
Campus Reform discovered that Lees physician/surgeon license in Connecticut expired more than two years ago on May 31, 2015 and she hasnt applied for a renewal since then.
In addition, Lees controlled substance registration for practitioner license expired nearly a year ago in February of 2017.
In response to Campus Reforms inquiry on the matter, Lee simply stated that I need only one license, though she has yet to elaborate on precisely which license that is, and, according to the state in which she resides, she allegedly has none.
Lee didnt merely publish her diagnosis she took it to Capitol Hill to brief lawmakers. Yale News reported:
On Dec. 5 and 6, Lee met with more than a dozen congressmen, including one Republican senator, Politico reported. In her presentation, Lee relied on the assessments of 27 mental health professionals, compiled in the book she edited, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump. Though she could not diagnose Trump without a formal evaluation, she said, Trumps recent behavior shows that he may be a danger to the American public

Not worth your time. Whoever wrote this article is demented. The author doesn't know the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist. This woman is not a physician/surgeon. She is a psychologist. She will be censured, probably by her state licensing board and by the APA.
She is currently licensed as a physician in New York.
Sorry. I was bad. Please forgive me. :-)
NGU, yes, I saw/focused on the 'psychologist' reference first.
Please don't trow me in da briar patch !
No matter what her accreditation or licenses are, she’s grossly incompetent, unethical, and a witless Progressive bimbo.
OMG. I made a big deal and she isn’t even a psychiatrist. My bad!
Supplemental oxygen is on the way. Hang on :)
.. and that seems to be the crux, right there !
I have seen mentioned in several reports that she has been trying to now renew her license. Since her remote analysis is not only unethical according the APA but very embarrassing to the profession, hopefully she will never get her license back.
I guess, since technically, she wasn’t a psychiatrist at the time, she wasn’t violating any doctor-behavior laws. Right?

FreeRepublic - ahead of the curve.
Dunno why, but I'm doubting it's Xavier.
And while we're at it, wth is a Bandy ?
oy vey
What a great idea......find a willing liberal shrink doctor that doesnt have anything like a practice or license to lose to make a public announcement that the POTUS is mentally ill.
Always!!
psychiatrist, psychologist, or whatever fancy medical word talking person she was supposed to be....
I'll bet that "psychologist" is being used incorrectly in this piece.Reference to a "physician/surgeon" license having expired indicates that this person has an MD or DO degree.Reference to a "prescribing license" having expired also does so.
She is a Psychiatrist not a psychologist. So a Dr. not a PhD
Please refer to my mea culpa above.
Actually some psychologists can prescribe. They need special training and license.
