Necessary Roughness

Storyline

Picking up the pieces from a messy divorce, Dr. Dani Santino dives headfirst into her Long Island psychotherapy practice. She eventually lands a career-turning gig as the team therapist for the New York Hawks, the local pro football franchise, and begins the challenge of rehabbing its resident bad boy, star wide receiver Terrence King. When King shows progress on and off the field, word spreads about Dr. Dani's successful tough-love therapy, and it's not long before the good doctor is an in-demand counselor-to-the-stars, working with athletes, entertainers, politicians and other high-profile clients. She also works on her home life as a single mom to two teenagers and re-enters the dating scene.
