A tale about a beautiful psychologist from San Francisco who decides to end a stalled romance with her long-time, high-profile, psychiatrist boyfriend/business partner. She moves on with her life by opening her own private practice in a vacant, street-front office space in the middle of a small commercial block located across the bay in Oakland, turning the predominately African-American and psychologically-ignored neighborhood on its emotional ear.
