The Yale University psychology professor who called President Trump mentally impaired appears to lack a valid license to practice psychiatry in her home state of Connecticut.
The professor, Bandy Lee, made the headlines over the past few days when she made a diagnosis of the president as suffering from a mental impairment that would disqualify him from the highest office in the land.
Following Lees comments, the American Psychiatric Association released a statement on Tuesday warning members of its profession to refrain from making public diagnoses of public figures like Trump without a proper medical exam.
“We at the APA call for an end to psychiatrists providing professional opinions in the media about public figures whom they have not examined, whether it be on cable news appearances, books, or in social media,” wrote the APA, without mentioning Lee specifically. “Arm-chair psychiatry or the use of psychiatry as a political tool is the misuse of psychiatry and is unacceptable and unethical.”
Lee and her colleague responded to the issue in a piece to Politico on Wednesday, in which they claimed it is perfectly OK to question the presidents mental state because of their profession as psychiatrists.
The professor, who has met with lawmakers in Capitol Hill to talk about the issue, is now facing scrutiny amid allegations that she is not licensed to practice psychology in Connecticut.
Campus Reform reports that state records indicate that Lees physician/surgeon license expired some three years ago on May 31, 2015 and that her application for reinstatement has been pending ever since. The publication was able to produce Lees license details to back up the claim.
In addition to her pending physicians license, the professors controlled substance registration for practitioner license is also lapsed, having expired last February. In other words, Lee is not legally able to prescribe medication as a medical practitioner.
Lee responded to Campus Reforms inquiries, stating simply: I only need one license. She did not clarify precisely what license she has, or in which state she is registered.
As TheDCs Joe Simonson writes, the U.S. presidents public meeting with congress shattered the narrative that he is mentally unfit to run the country.

Heh, it’s Yale. But then again, virtually every one of our university lib arts clown shows apparently have the same problem.
Crazy eyes.
It’s Yale Medical School that needs to lose
its certification at each hospital and clinic
for allowing this unlicensed witch doctor/painter/pole
dance to go on IN ITS NAME ... for the second year.
Somebody needs to check whether Dr. Clazy Eyes might be mentally impaired.
It is worth noting markomalley and tired&retired were on this case before the MSM...

Can you say “Rathergate”?
Is she licensed to practice anywhere?
As far as I know, you can’t teach at any school of medicine, dentistry, or allied health if you don’t have a valid, current license to practice in the field you teach in.
We can tell just by looking at her that she’s bat s**t crazy.
You must be a licenced shrink?
I think she looks like a stalker.
Remote Viewer MD (Yale): "Me treat you long time".
The perfect Democrat witness.
This woman by her unethical actions has weakened in the minds of many, the judgment and competence of psychiatrists. Any citizen of Connecticut can file an ethics complaint against her before the State Board of Medical Examiners. The Board by law will have to adjudicate each and every complaint before granting her a license.
About the only thing you can do is volunteer work in this type situation.
Someone else from FreeRepublic has said that she’s mostly working for some kind of foundation.
I’m like you....without the license, your whole authority is pretty much zero. You can’t be a real professor unless it’s some private college without much of an accreditation. I think she’s hooked up to someone in a college situation and pretending to be an actual licensed doctor.
If she does, it should be revoked.
Brandy seems to be suffering from a licensing impairment that would disqualify her from the profession she claims to be expert in.
If she does, it should be revoked.
She has a license in NY BUT NOT CT. Her drug license is in CT.
It appears she was practicing in CT without a CT license.
Teaching is not considered practicing.
If she does, it should be revoked.
Damn, nothing to take away then.
