There are questions about his credentials.  Minnesota is one of the only states where you can practice mental health without a license.

He is not registered with any of the three boards that certify mental health practitioners and professions in the state. The Minnesota Board of Psychology and the Board of Marriage and Family Therapy confirmed to POLITICO that Bachmann is not licensed with them. And a search of the Board of Behavioral Health and Therapy license database returns no result.

Trisha Stark, of the Minnesota Psychological Association, said that the title “clinical therapist” is not widely used in professional circles and that Bachmann is able to operate his clinic because of state rules regarding mental health practice…

The Bachmann and Associates office declined to comment on his professional credentials, and the campaign did not respond to requests for comment.
