Dr Song's ability to be open and vulnerable became stunted due to developing a much more compartmentalized and clinical personality in order to do her job.
Episodes 8 thru 11 are what I once called the Introduction To Disruption when I was teaching Media Therapy during my time working in the anime industry.
Once Dr Song removes her wall of apprehension and preconceptions, her emotions begin to flow freely and the entire session proceeds in a therapeutic way.
This session is a great example of the Media Therapy Modality working as intended. If you wanted clear examples of how it works, this will be ideal viewing.
Dr Song is officially hooked on B5 now and she shares her thoughts about her life, her work with dementia patients, and the use of psychotropics in psychology.
The obvious subject of this episode isn't what resonates with Dr Song, but this session does contain some emotional content that she handles extremely well.
