I am a therapist, and I find it so tragic that people of our profession have completely lost a sense of basic humanity and look at everything from the point of potential liability. It's super twisted to interpret a simple kind human gesture as something unethical. I love In Treatment, and I think he did an excellent job with Sophia.
I loved this show too. Therapists have therapists as friends. They consult with one another as peers-about their cases. Supervisors don’t stay supervisors. They sometimes become colleagues and friends. I did. Is that not allowed? The relationship between these two therapist is as complicated as their interactions with one another in this scene. This show had fantastic writers. This is not an interaction between a client and a therapist. Really important to state that. Therapists can hire a supervisor at any point in their career. It’s different when you are in graduate school or are getting supervised for licensure.
At times I forget this is fictional. I almost felt slightly bad for the therapist for the criticism of his method, but then I'm like oh wait, it's Gabriel Byrne. Fantastic acting from the cast.
In Brazil it’s completely different. What is cringy to Americans (hugs etc) is completely common in South American therapists office. It would not be acceptable to be this “cold” and “distant”. Clients would not feel comfortable otherwise.
Interesting. It makes sense that cultural differences would account for different standards of behavior in treatment. The Israeli show seems more fiery and the french one is even colder than the American one.
Respectfully, it’s not a cultural thing. A decent therapist needs to have strict boundaries with patients. It’s just needed rules or it’ll eventually harm both. (Believe me if you know why you’d definitely wanna follow the rules.) And one another thing, I’m not American, I actually live in Middle East:)
It was precisely what Gina addressed in later episode: "what do you want from me, a supervisor, friend, therapist, you're unclear" (something like that)
Paul’s in a tough spot here because he suspects the sexual abuse from the coach, but Sophie is so defensive and ready to split off that if he acts too quickly she’ll leave and never come back. Also the daughter situation is discovered in the middle of the session, he’s kind of trapped in a way.
I am a 22 year old studying a diploma of counselling. I find your videos so helpful. I sometimes struggle with learning boundaries but you make it so clear in these videos. I would love to work with children but also interested in criminal psychology. Thank you for all the helpful videos!!
Also, about Paul's "hands off" approach, he is supposed to be a psychoanalyst in the series (Gina talks about Stephen Mitchell who was a Relational analyst. So it makes sense for him, as a psychoanalytic therapist, to be a bit more silent. Many analysts are relatively silent because they want their clients to do the talking (more stuff to analyze) and say something when they have an interpretation to offer, and they want to invite their client's projections (transference). I'm not an analyst, but my supervisors were analysts, and even in supervision they were mostly silent.
I am so glad you are bringing attention to this show. I love your facial reactions! They totally match mine. I agree with what you said about Dr. Weston's silence and less reactions. I am so reactive and I try to keep silent space but it is challenging! And there are so many boundary issues in this show and I think it brings attention to how sticky they can get as a therapist. Thank you for all that you do for our community.
I really liked the layers of this series. The cases seem very real at times; sometimes I think that the clients are perhaps based on real people. I often feel that I would use different interventions or analyze the client differently from Paul, but his reactions are still interesting. Are you going to do more reactions to episodes?
I feel the same way! I'm filming a reaction to episode one of season 4 today - no idea how long until it releases since I take forever to edit reaction videos and baby girl is due soon, but it'll come sometime! :)
@@PrivatePracticeSkills I just started watching, and I was unpleasantly surprised with Paul's externalizing tendencies (or should I say; emotional abuse) of Gina. Of course it's all fiction, but it was shocking to see such a lack of mentalization in a therapist! Anyway, I look forward to your next reaction whenever you upload it, editing is certainly a pain. And congratulations! How wonderful that you will have a daughter soon. All the best!
10:52 my therapist can't remember anything. When I tell stories about Chris, he asks "Who was that again?" ....eh my ex-boyfriend? Well I've only been in therapy for a year now, so.... xD
@@anniepannie2093 Have you thought about going to another therapist? Maybe he or she has helped you a lot, and they are after all, human, so it's normal they forget things. But I just hope you feel comfortable with the process (Sorry, english is not my first language)
As someone thinking of going into counseling in rural areas, this kind of slippery slope between professionalism and community is some thing I anticipate running into a lot. Knowing that my practice might very well be connected to or at least close by my home and that I will likely run into my clients often outside of the practice these kinds of boundary issues may very well happen.
i love how we share the importance of boundaries between clients and therapist, it seems many therapist have lost this important aspect this days, probably they should check themselves a little bit, maybe they just want to be the smart friends of everybody xD
This is a sad thing to hear. I'm a part of the field now and it honestly shocked me to hear and read about the horror stories that people share with their therapist (in terms of the ill treatment that some therapists give and the breaking of trust). All jobs should be sacred but with this particular field we were taught to really respect the privacy of this client. It makes no sense for me that some would have clients read contracts and sign them, only to break their trust.
So what is ground zero--being humane or continually thinking in terms of legal or professional boundaries? Let her stay wet or wait who knows how long to call someone. Proof of when the institution takes precedent over being humane. The comments are so wish washy. The screen therapist in so authentic.
I'm amazed you feel that he's hands off? I guess I see you're point if you mean for the purpose of an evaluation, which in my country is not the job of a psychotherapist (I would NEVER provide an evaluation for an insurance company). I always feel as though he's super directive, usually because it's a gaping channel for all his unresolved stuff. I often feel as though he interrupts when he could leave space - and can't bear to let clients come around to a way of being in their own time because of his own insecurities. I love the show, I feel a lot for him, but I do also judge him. The boundary issues are sometimes so over the top I leave them to one side, it's more that he asks for so much openness from his clients, but doesn't often ask that of himself in his own therapy, I find that hard to stomach (something of me in that I wonder :P). It's fascinating listening to your different and similar takes on it :)
so about the change of clothes, i don't know if you are aware that people can actually die from hypothermia, offering to leave them in their wet clothes doesn't seem like the right thing to do. offering them the option for their guardian to pick them up, same person they got wet to get away from seems weird to me too. basically you're saying don't deal with this wet child.
Sophie mentions in the first one that she went to school with the daughter in a prior year. His daughter is either at a different school or graduated by the time Paul takes Sophie as a client.
That's deliberate. Casting Directors often pair actors together in very similar roles in other shows. It makes sense as they already have rapport and can slip into working together with ease.
There are therapists with no boundaries, but calling "slippery" the fact that he offered dry clothes to make a child feel comfortable is nothing close to loose boundaries. It's sad that psychologists today are trained in this manner, to not be able to differentiate between basic acts of kindness and confusing it with the actual boundaries that a professional therapist has to set in their practice, which in turns makes their whole treatment approach often much weaker. "Giving a teenage client with broken arms being soaked wet, the option to stay in them" just shows complete lack of empathy and makes a therapist seem more frightened not to overstep (despite knowing their own intentions to be based on kindness), rather than actually providing support.
It's been years since I watched Intreatment but i do love Him. Gina is supposibly his collegue I believe. Sometimes therapist need to read someones's personality in order to get a reaction and although I know this is a show he did that with Sophie.
No todos los psicólogos son iguales. Debe haber un punto de confianza. Si el psicólogo fuera tan distante y seco, seguramente no lo vería más. Está psicóloga se asombra y casi censura al terapista.
Yes, so many boundary crossings! Very cringe-worthy but also, I always found myself feeling empathy for him too. It may not be the best therapy, but it does make great TV :)
Yes that would be a wise thing. She could have used a blanket but its a bit odd the way they structured it because it seems as if she wanted him to help her change her clothes. Never watched it tho.
I just finished watching the episode where she hugs the mom.....I almost lost it. My eyes got watery. I hope that doesn't happen to my yes when I start treating patients
Sophie went into the bathroom (which would obviously be available to ALL clients). She did not go into Paul's private living quarters. Also, Paul is a psychoanalyst and silence is a typical part of that modality. His relationship with Gina is indeed cringe worthy and honestly kind of gross to me.
No, she does go into the kitchen, not available to all clients Yes, we are already told that Sophie and his daughter Rosie go to the same school The show take place in a Baltimore suburb at this point in the series Not to be critical but those doing reactions should know the show a bit better because it helps with judgement Many people take notes on paper and then type them up
I can tell she's a real therapist because she is absolutely right about everything here, and very interesting, but SO uncomfortable in this new role as a TH-cam personality that she develops a very strange bunch of nervous tics and mannerisms. When I say "stick to your day job," I truly mean that as a compliment!
An observation. I'm currently watching the show and his wife came to his office. She's in the office's bathroom helping Sophie, not in the house, so she's not in his personal space.
Yoire not showing the full scenes yet analysed commetimg This scene was amazing the way it was thought and acted out Please show the full episode of you are going to bullshit
Probably if its not appropriate to give some dry clothes and avoid the awkwardness of her having to redress, I would probably try to offer a blanket instead so Sophie could at least warm up a little.
She did a review on it as well. It's interesting how people are commenting on this one who is crossing boundaries vs how they are commenting to the African American therapist doing the same 🤔 here the title is "Crossing all the Boundaries" vs the title "So Cringey" for the other. Way more of a negative connotation. I seriously question her cultural competence.
@@blessedandannointed I can understand that I had to re-read your comment….. When in all actuality i think the titles should be switched if that’s what she called that one
I remember watching this series years ago, I don't think I stuck with it beyond season 2, because like in many other movie productions - it seemed too unrealistic and showcasing more ''bad therapy'' than good. Don't they hire consultants - real psychologists and psychotherapists for the writing of these movies? It's absurd. Similar with ''Workin' moms'' on Netflix - the character Anne Carlson crossing so many boundaries, not being mentally stable herself etc. Same with ''You Me Her'' on Netflix and 3 of the main characters - all working in Mental Health and all being bad examples of what a stable person who works as a therapist should be like. - _Leah_
I would actually do what you would do about the clothes, I would personally call the parents or guardian to come pick her up or to bring her some dry clothes. I would never involve a client with my personal life. It is dangerous and unethical. The therapist was laid back, did not really push for her to open, this in turn encouraged her to open up more with gentle questions. She began to start to feel comfortable and opened up more of her feelings. The wife really couldn't do much after Sophie wrapped her arms around her neck. Sophie is apparently hurting and she need some form of comfort, She clearly felt safe with Paul's wife. Paul should have been referred to another therapist, clearly this is a history with the two, either therapist or supervisor. WOW! refer. Don't get involved
It's general practice for therapists to call the folks we serve clients rather than patients. This is to reflect how we come alongside those we work with and journey together with them and help them discover what's best for them, rather than a medical model where therapists simply prescribe solutions. I hope that's helpful to hear!
@@PrivatePracticeSkills It is illuminating to hear, but to my ears, a little disappointing. It highlights the transactional nature of the relationship rather than the healing aspect.
@@fueradeljuego Dr's (psychiatrists, psychologists, and psychiatric nurse practitioners) especially those who went to medical school or are able to prescribe psychotropic medications typically use the term patients, whereas licensed therapists or Masters level clinicians (Counselors and Social Workers) use the term clients.
She goes to school with his daughter, Rosie and actually knows her. Paul cannot leave her in the wet clothes. Not sure what to do there. He needed to call her mom. If no answer, or either way, cover her with a blanket.
I went straight to 4 minutes to get to the review. It didn’t take long for me to stop watching mainly because of your totally I over the line sensitivity to “boundaries”. Really? Thank goodness I don’t deal with therapists.
@@saitsvg Are you talking about the TV show or the actual therapist? In case it wasn't obvious enough, the TV show is fictional entertainment and not an accurate representation of real therapy.

I know this isn't the point of this video, but Mia Wasikowska's performance as Sophienis PHENOMENAL. Her American accent is so good.
