The problem is, and I can not emphasize this enough, while McGraw is a psychologist he is not licensed, and his show is specifically for entertainment purposes only. He is legally prohibited from providing mental health services. If he wanted to help, it would not be to put her on tv, but to put her in touch with the (free) county mental health services that are available.
