They also discuss the episode's character development and dissect the show's portrayal of Jimmy's wildly inappropriate therapist-client boundary blurring.

Episode 2 of Shrinking gives us a deeper look at the characters, their struggles and their (maladaptive?) coping skills. Psychologists Liz and Tamara dive into Paul's fortress of solitude and his tender relationship with Alice, the hilarious and poignant addition of toxic "human Zoloft" Brian, and Jimmy's need to accelerate his client's progress to compensate for his own stuckness. 

Should therapists tell their clients what to do? Is Jimmy a psychological vigilante? At what point do you report another therapist for unethical behavior? How much self-disclosure is appropriate? 

Join psychologists Dr. Elizabeth Foley and Dr. Tamara Soles as they break down episode 1 of Shrinking and tackle these questions and more with clinical insight, self-reflection and a whole lot of levity.
