Heart of the Matter Psychological Services

This is third time I’m watching this show and it’s gets better after every rewatch. The performances across the board are excellent and the message is gut-wrenching and beautiful. As a psychologist, I cannot say with enough words how much I appreciate that this TV shows exists. I’m so moved by the compassion and education that it gives us. Tom Holland’s performance is nothing short Emmy-winning. He gives us a fantastic performance. He brings to life a complex, deeply wounded, often tender, sometimes charming, sometimes violent character that you can’t help but root for. He stole the show. Bravo 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
