[edit] Character History
Violet is a psychiatrist at the Oceanside Wellness Centre. Though she tells her patients that happiness can be attained with focus, she fails to find any happiness in her life. She even questions the usefulness of her chosen profession. Six months prior, her boyfriend Allan had split up with her and she is, to this day, still torn by the break-up. Making it worse is that she ran into Allan in a supermarket to discover that he'd gotten married to a younger woman only a few months after their break-up. This has shaken Violet badly and she's taken to "stalking" Allan with constant calls as she tries to deal with him moving on while she is unable to. Violet is good friends with her coworker, Cooper Freedman, often getting him out of humiliating situations with women. Violet is a member of the American Psychiatric Association and the American College of Psychiatrists.
