    Harvey Weinstein's psychologist has said only “time will tell” if he has made progress in therapy

    The 65-year-old disgraced producer is set to finish out-patient sessions in Arizona on Saturday (21.10.17) after sources claimed he was to be treated for sex addiction following the allegations that he sexually harassed over 40 women in a 30-year period.


    His psychologist – who has refused to be named – has informed celebrity news site TMZ that Harvey has taken the “intense therapy”

    treatment sessions “seriously”, and when asked whether he has made progress since entering therapy a week ago, the medical expert

    responded: "Time will tell.”

    They added that Harvey "was able to focus on his therapy despite a ton of distractions. He showed up for all the meetings and was fully engaged," and squashed early reports that suggested Harvey was angry at the allegations and was “spinning out of control”, insisting they were “not true”.

    However, the psychologist admitted that Harvey's medical team had addressed the producer's “anger”.

    And they said that Harvey's medical team focused on "dealing with his anger, his attitude toward others, boundary work and the beginnings of work on empathy."

    They continued: "There were things that triggered [Weinstein's] anger and our job was to help him recognize where it was coming from and how to control it. But he was not venting about some conspiracy to get him. It was an appropriate display of anger."

    Though Harvey will end his therapy sessions on Saturday, TMZ also reported that the movie mogul will continue to reside in Arizona for four weeks.

    Harvey has vehemently denied claims published by the New York Times newspaper earlier this month that he had harassed a string of female employees over a 30-year time span, and has vowed to take legal action.
