Phil McGraw

Phil McGraw or more famously known as Dr. Phil rose to fame due to his talk show of the same name. Since then, he became a household name and one of the biggest personalities on TV. McGraw has a Ph.D. degree in clinical psychology. His interest in the said study is said to be influenced by his father, Joseph J. McGraw Jr., who is also a psychologist. Together they established their consulting services.

McGraw left their business and established Courtroom Sciences, Inc (CSI). This opened doors for him to meet several personalities, including Oprah Winfrey, who helped him land his first show. As McGraw spanned his career as a TV personality, he also managed to grow his business and established a production company with his son, Jay McGraw. Just last May 2020, Dr. Phil made a comment regarding the pandemic’s effect on the mental health of people and made an honest mistake regarding the figures he mentioned during the interview.
