Developed by Rodrigo Garcia, Paris Barclay as executive producer, and principal director, “In Treatment” is an American drama television series starring Gabriel Byrne as Paul, a psychotherapist, 50-something, and his weekly sessions with patients, as well as those with his own therapist at the end of the week that first broadcast on January 28, 2008.
The program’s format, script, and opening theme are based on Israeli series BeTipul (Hebrew: בטיפול), created by Hagai Levi, Ori Sivan, and Nir Bergman.
The latest season premiered on Sunday, May 23, 2021, at 9:00 P.M on HBO.
Emmy-winning drama series In Treatment returns for its fourth season with Emmy winner Uzo Aduba (Mrs. America, Orange Is The New Black) as the observant, empathetic Dr. Brooke Taylor, the therapist at the center of the season.
The reimagining of the series is set in present-day Los Angeles and brings a diverse trio of patients in session with Brooke to help navigate a variety of modern concerns. Issues such as the global pandemic and recent major social and cultural shifts are a backdrop to the work Brooke will undertake — all while she deals with complications in her own personal life.
