[1] Each episode portrayed a patient's appointment with psychiatrist Paul Bernard (Chris Wiggins) at his office.
The patient, typically female, would lie on the doctor's couch and reveal her thoughts in keeping with the practices of psychoanalysis.
Script material was derived from Canadian Mental Health Association patient histories.
Since the plot was limited to the doctor-patient dialogue within Bernard's office, the series was described as a "one-set semi-soap".
The series was also purchased for broadcast in Australia, Hong Kong and the United States (selected CBS stations).
