Her about page on https://patricgagne.com/ says this

> B.A. · University of California Los Angeles

> M.A. · California Graduate Institute

> PhD · California Graduate Institute of The Chicago School of Professional Psychology




It might be pedantic but according to Wikipedia the CGI awards a PsyD rather than a PhD: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Graduate_Institute

This Wiki page has a little more about the differences between the two: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_of_Psychology

It seems like the PsyD has more emphasis on clinical practise and (one supposes) less on theoretical research.

Schools also sometimes change which they issue.
