Strictly Business<\/a>.\u201d \u201cIt just hit a spot that is desperately needed, which is deeper, slower thought into the underlying motivations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\tAs for her own motivations in opening up a version of how she conducts her private practice for public consumption, Guralnik sees a big responsibility that comes with the gig. \u201cI also feel in certain ways, compelled to represent the profession well, and I think the world kind of needs a lot more psychological and psychoanalytic thinking nowadays,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n
\n\tGuralnik went deep on the ethical ramifications of her process, making clear what TV viewers see has many elements of actual therapy sessions but isn\u2019t quite the real thing because of how the cameras change the dynamic in the room, compromising confidentiality. <\/p>\n
\n\tGuralnik also described her initial reluctance to participate in the show, as psychoanalysts are typically very private people. But the show\u2019s creators convinced her to try it, and they all approached it as a big experiment to see if therapy could be recreated on camera.<\/p>\n
\n\tIn addition, Guralnik looked to the future of the show, musing about the possibility it could one day continue without her but with a different therapist on the couch. <\/p>\n
