Jack

In this beautiful season opener, Claudia meets Jack, before introducing him to Professor Tanya Byron who, in a one on one session, digs deep into his story, with fascinating and emotional revelations.

Jack who has overcome anxiety and PTSD, but has found his biggest challenge to date, is the estrangement from his father.
