Episode 2: Building Trust

Doctor Love - Episode #2: "Building Trust"

While they listen to Dr. Burnett's sessions with Hazel, and her attempts to help Hazel during a depressive episode, Daphne and Preston theorize about Hazel's attachment style and feelings of trust and isolation.

Doctor Love takes place, in part, in 1950s Pennsylvania. The characters exist within a sexist and homophobic time period. Please note that Doctor Love contains misogyny, medical and emotional abuse, and homophobia. This episode also contains mentions of withdrawal symptoms, suicidal thoughts and symptoms of severe depression. Audience discretion is advised.
