According to 9to5Mac, Ford will play the role of Dr. Phil Rhodes, a specialist in cognitive behavioral therapy in the new “Shrinking” series. The story of the show revolves around the life of a grieving therapist who becomes “brutally” honest with his clients to change their lives and his own for the better.
