About the show

How does therapy really work? What does it sound like, and how does it help? In this weekly series of unscripted, improvised therapy sessions, psychoanalyst Eugenio Duarte takes you inside the therapy room to listen in on what happens between therapist and patient.

The patients and the dilemmas they bring to Eugenio are fictional, but what unfolds between them is spontaneous and real.
