In Treatment (TV Series)

TV Series (2008-2010). 3 Seasons. 106 Episodes. An innovative and emotional new series, ‘In Treatment’ brings dynamic focus to a staple of modern society – the psychotherapy session. Adapted from a popular Israeli series, the show follows psychoanalyst Paul Weston through his week, capturing a session each night with his patients – Laura, Alex, Sophie and married couple Jake and Amy – before concluding each Friday in the office of Paul’s own therapist, Gina. Stepping inside the tangled mind of a man who counsels others for a living, ‘In Treatment’ renders an intricate portrayal of the experts we rely on for perspective. A psychoanalyst in his 50s who conducts his practice from a home office, Paul has two boys and a girl with his wife Kate, and his career has led him to a respected and successful place. But Paul is beginning to feel his tolerance wane behind the easygoing front he displays for his patients; even worse, his gut reactions are beginning to seep through the cracks. After four particularly trying days of therapy, Paul decides he needs the counsel of a retired therapist, Gina. Gina served as Paul's professional supervisor years ago. Since then, she has lost her husband, turned 60, retired as a therapist and started writing a novel. Yet when Paul unexpectedly calls her to discuss the growing issues with his practice, Gina allows him to return, renewing a complicated relationship between them. 'In Treatment' is based on the israeli series "Be 'Tipul" created by Hagai Levi with Ori Sivan & Nir Bergman.
