Furman University’s Grace Binion, an assistant professor of psychology, believes characters on Emmy-winning Apple TV+ show “Ted Lasso” could benefit from some specialized therapy. She describes the treatment, dialectical behavior therapy, (and the strained relationship between Ted and Nate) in a Furman News article. The story was picked up by FOX Carolina, which aired two segments on May 15 during the 4 o’clock broadcast, and again at 5 o’clock. More extensive coverage from FOX Carolina is available on YouTube.
