Depends on your jurisdiction. In mine, I believe that "therapist" and "psychotherapist" are not regulated so anyone can call themselves that. Kind of like "psychic" or "consultant." If they belong to a regulated profession you can report them to their regulatory body. If they do not belong to a professional association and are using an unregulated title they may not require a license to practice. It's ethically bankrupt but totally legal.
Thanks for this!
