Like most med school grads, David Tracey expected to roll straight into a residency, earn his license to practice medicine and begin paying off his massive student loans. But when his hospital position falls through, David devises a scheme to start offering free psychotherapy - out of his parents' garage. Now, all he needs to do is clock the 1,920 clinical hours required and he'll get his life back on track. But when a ragtag stream of oddball clients begins coming to him for help, he starts to realize something about himself. He may have just found a new career that makes him feel right at home.

Recent med-school graduate David Tracey just lost his residency. With $584,000 of student loan debt and his dream of being a "real doctor" destroyed, he discovers a loophole: If he can perform 1,920 hours of supervised clinical therapy, he'll still be able to help people for a living. Now all he needs is a supervising therapist, and patients willing to come to his office...in his parents' garage.
