Ep 3. The Breakthrough

In Web Therapy season 1 episode 3, titled "The Breakthrough," we see Fiona Wallace (played by Lisa Kudrow) continuing to conduct her unorthodox online therapy sessions with her clients. In this episode, she is focused on helping a couple, Sue and Steve (played by Jennifer Elise Cox and Tim Bagley, respectively), who are having difficulty conceiving a child.

Sue and Steve have been trying to have a baby for years, but have been unsuccessful. They have tried everything, from fertility treatments to adoption, but nothing seems to be working. As they begin their session with Fiona, they are at their wit's end and are willing to try anything.

Fiona starts off the session by asking Sue and Steve about their sex life. They explain that it has become very clinical and regimented due to their efforts to conceive. Fiona suggests that they try to have more spontaneous and fun sex to take the pressure off. She even suggests that they try to conceive in a public place, which shocks Sue and Steve.

As the session goes on, Fiona realizes that Sue may be more hesitant to try new things than Steve. She decides to have a separate session with Sue to discuss her fears and reservations. During this one-on-one time, Fiona discovers that Sue is dealing with a lot of anxiety and pressure to have a child. She helps Sue work through her anxieties and fears, and they come up with a plan for her to try some of Fiona's suggested exercises with her husband.

As the session comes to a close, Fiona encourages Sue and Steve to try to have sex in a public place, specifically a park. They agree to give it a try, and Fiona promises to check in with them in their next session.

In addition to Sue and Steve's storyline, we also see Fiona dealing with some personal issues. Her mother is in town and is pressuring her to settle down and start a family. Fiona is resistant to the idea, preferring to focus on her career and personal interests. This subplot adds an extra layer to Fiona's character and reinforces her unconventional approach to life.

Overall, "The Breakthrough" is a humorous and lighthearted episode that showcases Fiona's unorthodox methods of therapy. It is an entertaining look at the lengths that couples will go to in order to conceive a child, and how sometimes a little spontaneity can go a long way.
