An Indiana man is being called a fake for passing himself off as a psychologist.
The Indiana State Psychology Board has suspended David Edward Mowry's psychology license.
Mowry has an office in Seymour, and reportedly treated patients in several cities, including at an assisted living facility west of Indianapolis.
Mowry allegedly bought his college transcripts, forged credentials in applications for employment, and used an expired license number belonging to someone else.
The transcripts appeared real enough that, the state of Indiana gave him a license to practice psychology until they announced they were suspending it Monday.
Mowry obtained the temporary license in January of 2010. Police say he claimed to have gotten a Ph.D. in 2007 and had forged transcripts to prove it. Mowry allegedly used the license number of another psychologist as well.
WHAS11 went to the address listed as Mowry's office which was a home in Seymour, Indiana. When we knocked on the door, a resident refused to comment.
Mowry's license is suspended for 90 days.
People who were treated by Mowry can contact the Attorney General's office at 1-800-382-5516.
