Dr. Dre's Ex-Psychiatrist Files for Restraining Order Against Him

Dr. Dre‘s former psychiatrist isn’t just suing him, he’s downright terrified of him — so much so, he’s asking a judge to order the music mogul to stay away … TMZ has learned.

Dr. Charles Sophy filed for a temporary restraining order Friday in L.A. County Court … citing the alleged threats he says Dre texted him over the course of 18 months. Sophy, who had served as a marriage counselor for Dre and his now ex-wife Nicole during their divorce, wants the court to force Dre to stay 100 yards away from him and his 22-year-old son.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, he also wants Dre to stop contacting him altogether … whether by phone, text or email. Sophy’s fear is evident in the documents — he says Dre knows where he lives, and has previously been inside his home.

Sophy doesn’t even trust his dogs, Maxx and Cash, are safe from Dre … he’s officially requesting the judge order Dre to stay away from them, too.

As we reported, Sophy’s filed a $10 million lawsuit against Dre … claiming the “Forgot About Dre” rapper started sending threatening texts in February 2023 — 14 months after Dre and Nicole finalized their divorce.

He claims the texts include Dre calling him a “bitch” and ominous warnings like, “Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about you.”

The judge has not yet granted Sophy’s request.
