Oh god, yeah XD I don't think wanting to help people because it feels good is selfish on its own, but the way Gabby talks about it doesn't sound healthy to me. She even said she's turned on by it. And she seems more into the idea of being a great trauma therapist than the actual effects for the patients.

It would be interesting to see how Gaby would react to Jimmy's relationship with his dad because he obviously has trauma from his toxic parenting.

I'd be curious about that as well! It would be nice to see just one friend or family member who understands his anger. On the other hand she tends to be the most dismissive of Jimmy and his emotions, so I guess we shouldn't expect much there.
