Sigmund Fraud

Poor Genevieve finds herself falling for cult after cult after cult. But little does she know, Ian's the worst type of cult leader of all; a friggin' improv coach!! Pyramid schemes are NOT a good deescalation from cults! Trust exercises should not be violent! BUF JR may work as a teaching technique for game in a UCB sense of things, but it should NOT be internalized and chanted!! GET OUT OF THERE...

Hank Mug is an insomniac struggling with being overly self-reliant. And yet, first thing he does is ask that Sigmund Fraud of a therapist of his if he can mooch an energy drink out of the mini-fridge. Don't be sucked in by all the pomp and circumstance of the Office Space, Hank! Ian will probably just talking about his failed dating life again . You need to address the impracticality of your sleep...

Wait, what the actual fuck??? That Sigmund Fraud Ian Herrin is in therapy himself and sees his therapist only once a year?? And it's the friggin' almighty supernatural being Santa Clause?!?!?!? How dare Ian make Santa do this!!! And of all days, he chooses the most sacred of holidays, BOXING DAY! You don't have to do this, Santa!! Clearly not all naughty children are capable of the introspection r...

Yet another parole ordered client Rob Picchiotti arrives in the office space still fuming that Aaron Judge considered playing for a team besides the Yankees in free agency. And somehow the the Sigmund Fraud of a therapist Ian Herrin wants to blame the concept of masculinity in general and let Rob off the hook for his road rage incident?? Don't listen to Ian, Rob! I guarantee you the way he defines...

Dr. Tumbridge Diddlebottom's HR issues follow him everywhere he goes, especially when he's in an orchid. And yet, somehow he finds a way to manage being a nearly fully gruntled man. Not that this real Sigmund Fraud of a therapist Ian Herrin is going to be able to help him much. Ian's obsession with fame and problematic relationship with his English grandmother are almost assuredly going to take ov...

The midwestern soccer mom Cookie Baker is not all she appears to be. It actually makes a lot of sense why someone like her would need therapy, but what makes positively no sense at all is why this wackadoo Sigmund Fraud of a therapist Ian Herrin is indulging her inappropriate behavior. Your family is built on a lie, Cookie! There is no Rashomon scenario in which you are the good person!  Well...

But does she have any idea what kind of anxiety is brought out in Ian on a day he decided to cook a full meal for his beloved mom?? Ian's clearly not in a healthy place if he shouts your son's name, Lisa! Go back to your Yoga and physical therapy cause Ian's the real quack! Stephen sou...

Ingrid Solo wants to defy her name and finally be a part of a dynamic duo; the peanut butter to her jelly, the Thelma to her Louise,  the 11 pilots to her 10 pilots. And wouldn't you know that jealous Fraud  of a therapist Ian Herrin somehow thinks he could be a part of Ingrid's duo, so long as Ian's priorities come first. Don't take his advice, Ingrid! A baguette is not the ideal bread...

Big Ridge is a simple guy who only wants to talk about his dog Shelby. Kinda pure and sweet, right?? Well you know a Sigmund Fraud of a therapist like Ian Herrin can't help himself and insists on digging deeper and deeper into lower depths of depravity too spicy to even attempt to recap in a public facing episode description. If only they stopped at Duke! LEAVE IT AT THE DOGS, IAN! DON'T MAKE IT C...

Cultural Emissary to Indian culture Ashok Srinivasan has lived through some challenging times in his life, including one full week of unemployment. Ashok doesn't always feel like people see what he's like on the inside, but he's sorely mistaken if he thinks this Ian guy is going to be able to provide anything helpful in a therapy session to help him process his identity and how he's perceived. Qui...

Whelp, Ian may have finally met a human being worse than him, but not by much! Paul Dennison is totally unfit to be a father and should have child services intervene in his son's life, but instead terrible therapist Ian Herrin spends this time explaining what he thinks sex is. This session unlike tennis has no instant gratification and instead will surely prove to be a textbook example of a classi...

A middle aged man that came to life at a UCB improv jam several years ago is clearly an entity that would need a lot of therapy. For those who don't know, an improv jam is essentially an open mic for improvisers in which students and performers of all levels can put themselves on stage to perform in a pressurized setting that often leads to broad, over-the-top comedic choices. Such is the torment...

It is always a bad sign if your therapist is discussing the last time they cried right before you arrive, and honestly, right away that should have been a huge red flag to a night zookeeper like Hotch Stevkins. Regardless of what the giraffes may think of him, Ian Herrin is almost always using his clients to get access to free entertainment systems while continuing to aggressively guerilla market...

The less famous Osment brother Joel Haley joins the absolute FRAUD Ian Herrin in his office this week and honestly couldn't sound any sadder. I don't think Ian is right to be letting your stage mom off the hook to ask about your grandparents Joel Haley! And he certainly was not a good scene partner for you in those sides you brought! Don't trust the flyswatter method!! Get out of there while you s...

Southern nice guy Rodney and all his nicknames arrive in a whirlwind to see quite possibly the worst therapist of all time. It sounds to me Rodmeister that you already have several of your own healthy techniques to reduce the anger in your life! You certainly shouldn't consider the truly bizarre whims of that Sigmund Fraud Ian Herrin! And would somebody please get that poor doggo out of there?!? H...

Mercury must be in retrograde because Ellipses has finally found her way back to that absolute Fraud of a therapist Ian Herrin for another session! But alas, Ellipses you have to understand even though you don't want to kink shame, you can absolutely do better than to let this total Dexter looking murderous freak of a clitoris (ahem, I mean C.T.W.R.O.S.) tell you how to treat yourself when you're...

Leaves Bennet, an ice cream truck driver and mother to doggos Beverly Hills and Bill Clinton, is someone with very pressing issues she's hoping to discuss. But wouldn't you know it, the Sigmund Fraud known as Ian completely diverts the session yet again away from the serious problems weighing on Leaves's mind! Don't listen to Ian, Leaves, and practice letting go! Especially of shows backed up on y...

Before you jump to conclusions on your Jump to Conclusions Mat, you should know Clintoc Beppers isn't all he purports himself to be. And even so, he deserves better mental health treatment that the Sigmund Fraud he gets in the form of ex-improviser Ian Herrin. Ian is much less likely to help Clintoc with his lady troubles and instead much more likely to date his identically-sounding mom. Be carefu...

Captain Bayless Welliver is a pirate that very much plays by the rules of bureaucracy of the sea. But this session yet again proves to be much more about the Sigmund Fraud himself and moreover what Ian perceives his toxic masculine ideal of piracy to be. Don't listen to him, Captain Welliver! A good pirate always follows the orders of HRRRRRRRRR! Don't even waste one more sun or doubloon on this s...

I'm sorry Dolly but revealing your identity is crucial to the world really knowing what a terrible Fraud of a therapist this Ian Herrin guy is! You know he's given therapy to serial killers before right?? And assuming Dolly is trying to avoid law enforcement, it really sounds like Ian should not be the one she seeks mental health advice from no matter how fluffy his office stray dog may be. Get ou...

Struggling self help guru and author of the Wake Up! series Dr. Grace must feel like she's looking in a mirror staring back at that real Sigmund Fraud Ian. Both are obsessed with celebrities, have borderline made-up credentials, and love yelling at young people what they are doing wrong. This session with these two blowhards chugalugalugalugs along with no actually decent mental health tips in sig...

You'd think the 900 year old being Lucky Fella Got Umbrella would have enough wisdom to not go see Ian as a therapist, and yet here we are! Still riding the high of having tried sausage pizza for the first time, Lucky Fella arrives in the office space still finding himself struggling with Classic Bicentennial Man Syndrome while he tries to channel his inner Tina from Bob's Burgers. The worst two t...

Just like the famous U2 song, poor Otis was raised by wolves, stronger than fear. And yet, he has a fatal flaw in his choice in this Sigmund Fraud of a therapist. If Otis wants any hope of breaking his wolfpack-a-day habits and escaping the ghosts of his past, he needs to address that despite his advanced language skills there are still a whole scat load of old habits ingrained in him holding back...

Whatever you do, Oley, don't listen to Ian! You are witness to one of the greatest and mysterious phenomena on Earth, and you can't let this Sigmund Fraud tell you it's not important! How were you not suspicious when the entire office smelled like Sardi's? You know his judgment has to be impaired by the hot pipe!? The miniverse is real and your family might still be in danger!!  You there! Yo...
