Who is Teri in Baby Reindeer?

Teri (The therapist who deserved the whole person) is a character in Baby Reindeer, part of Donny's World. Teri is a therapist Donny meets on a dating app under a fake name and a borrowed biography — the relationship he wants and systematically undermines, ashamed of desiring a trans woman and more ashamed of the shame. She is the series' clearest mirror: funny, direct, professionally fluent in exactly Donny's evasions, and unwilling to be anyone's secret. What Martha does when she discovers Teri, and what Donny fails to do about it, marks the cost of his paralysis in someone else's bruises.
