This story is about a therapist who helps his patients by hearing their stories (over the phone) and then creating a “profile” of them in his head. This allows him to live through a prediction of their experiences to best help treat them. However, the Therapist neglects their own needs and slowly the profile he makes of others take over his mind as he inherits their trauma.

I wanted to have different “characters.” But I was only filming myself. Having me embody different characters and having people voice them allowed for a self contained story within 1-2 locations. To show the fact that the Therapist is losing sight of himself throughout the piece, I never gave him a name. It just says Therapist repeatedly in the script.
