Trish endeavours to create a safe and supporting environment where together, she and the patient can build a trusting relationship through the therapeutic process. Here are the reasons Julia gives for dragging a mature man into therapy against his will: He sleeps until noon.

He hasn't showered "for days. Sunil is resentful when she asks him to stop teaching their youngest son, Sam, Bengali words because Sam's language skills are "delayed" and not "grade appropriate. And finally she doesn't like the way Sunil "looks" at her.

When Sunil takes out a bag of Drum Tobacco during the session, Julia reacts as though he's just pulled down his pants to take a dump on Paul's rug. On the other hand, Sunil is obviously capable of being an infuriating prick. He refuses to speak English the entire time Julia is in the room, forcing her and Paul to communicate through Arun's translation.

When Julia claims that the children are becoming scared of Sunil, he retorts, in Bengali, that she is "afraid of herself. But this is obviously typical of the kind of insightful but cryptic insults that are driving Julia mental.

And as soon as Paul gets Julia and Arun to leave, it becomes clear that Sunil is actually in trouble. The first thing he does is tell Paul an anecdote about a man in his home town who used to clean doorknobs with a sari smeared with his own feces. The sari belonged to his dead aunt, a beloved mother figure. The man eventually hung himself with it. Stories about suicide are to "In Treatment" what guns are to Chekhov. You can't put one in the first episode without deep, scary foreshadowing.

But it's easy to overlook this because Sunil is so delightfully snarky. Turns out he has not been taking the Effexor that Arun who is an osteopath has prescribed to him.

Instead he is feeding it to the potted flower Julia put in his room. It is flourishing. Fortunately for my daughter-in-law's bank account, it does not need therapy. Resistant as he seemed in the first fifteen minutes of the session, Sunil recognizes that he has met someone with whom he can have decent conversation.

She enjoys a regular meditation and yoga practice and loves walking, dancing, and spending time with her partner, beloved greyhound, and her sweet and sassy cat. To book a 1st appointment with Patricia Ruiz directly or view upcoming availability, please see our online booking site HERE.
