Randy Flynt and Denver7’s Ryan Luby.
A Denver7 undercover investigation has prompted a judge to order an unlicensed psychologist to stop treating patients, and police to seek an arrest warrant against him.
On Tuesday, Pueblo police confirmed they have completed an affidavit seeking the arrest of Randy Flynt for a misdemeanor charge of unauthorized practice.
On Monday, a Pueblo judge granted a temporary civil injunction against Flynt after considering evidence of Flynt’s unlicensed practice presented by the Colorado Attorney General’s Office – evidence gathered largely by Denver7 Investigates.
Judge Allison Ernst viewed Denver7’s hidden camera video of Randy Flynt claiming he is a clinical psychologist inside the Lighthouse Counseling Center in Pueblo. Flynt holds no state license of any kind and Denver7 could not confirm the claim posted on his website that he holds a doctorate in psychology.
This is not the first time the state has sought to stop Flynt with legal orders. In 2017 three state mental health boards issued cease and desist ordersagainst Flynt months after the boards received a complaint that he was practicing psychotherapy without a license. Yet more than a year after those orders were issued, Denver7 found Flynt still practicing in the same location.
