Sean

Sean, in his late teens, unexpectedly experiences social anxiety and sees a therapist specializing in hypnotherapy, Dr. Josh Nguyen, who is still in training. Originally from a small town in the Midwest, raised with traditional values and a strong sense of community, he is self-deprecating, aloof, and pessimistic. A high school student and member of the debate team, he enjoys reading mystery novels and playing chess but dislikes crowded places and loud noises. He once won a regional science fair, boosting his confidence in his early teens.
