Booking Overview

This is a relationship and psychotherapy show built primarily around intimate counseling sessions with anonymous participants, supplemented by occasional conversations with prominent authors and relationship experts. Credible pitches would include established psychotherapists, psychologists, relationship researchers, and authors with an original, evidence-based framework or substantial book; booking is difficult because external interviews are selective and relatively infrequent.
