Jane Lynch As Dr. Linda Freeman
Dr. Linda Freeman remains relatively obscure, primarily recognized as the therapist for Alan, Jake, and Charlie. Initially, her role centered on being Jake’s child therapist, guiding him through the challenges of his parents’ divorce. Over time, her caseload expanded to include Alan and Charlie, although her interactions with them were often marked by a touch of sarcasm. Notably, Dr. Freeman was absent from Charlie’s funeral, but she reappears later in the series, this time as Walden’s therapist.
