While Dr. Phil always focuses on “getting real” he does not seem to target his expertise in any one particular area. Unlike most experts, Dr. Phil does not choose a niche in which to specialize. He seems to have the answers for every problem and advice to share with all. One may wonder how one person can truly have such in depth knowledge of solving problems on such a wide array of subjects.
