Breaking Point Trivia:

Dr. Thompson was the chief resident psychiatrist and Dr. Raymer was his boss, the director of the psychiatric clinic. The hospital where Drs. Thompson and Raymer worked was called "York Hospital".

The Breaking Point TV show didn't spend a lot of time showing viewers the interaction between patients and their psychiatrist. Most of the storyline was about the events that led to each patient developing a need for therapy.
