Critics

The series had positive reviews of the entire paper and digital press of Argentina. The newspaper ''Clarín''highlighted her style, considering her an "heiress" of ''Situación límite'' (1984) and ''Atreverse'' (1990). The newspaper La Nación gave him a "very good" rating (four stars out of five) and praised "the forcefulness with which the characters of the characters involved in the story, the richness of the plot that the talks in the office reveal in which the relations between them are woven, the certainty of the dialogues that give account of these talks and the structure of each episode and the future of the series in general that manages the intrigue in addition to the turns, the emotion and the humor they get the viewer's imagination to become a luxury assistant for that indoor camera and make history come alive, variety and dynamism by transcending the limits of the unity of place that the series supposedly poses. The newspaper ''Tiempo Argentino'' highlighted that “in the antipodes of the local productions that appeal to the musical edition to prick the spectator's emotion, here the silence allows to recover the“ noise of real life. After all, this dryness strengthens the dramatic nature of the psychoanalytic scene and, in the viewer, the "feeling" of spying on an event that, of course, is forbidden, although it marked that" the vulnerable point of ''En terapia'' It is the collation, which in some episodes reveals incongruities of continuity. The magazinene ''Noticias de la Semana'' gave it five stars and directly described it as “an impeccable fiction, very well written and adapted and with anthological performances that raise the level of daily fiction well above usual standards“. The newspaper ''Página/12'' marked that “returning to the most basic tools is a novelty worth celebrating”, and this is “the key to the appeal of ''En terapia'', highlighting the organization of the series in independent sessions that can be followed freely as a «novelty that the series introduces on Argentine TV, in addition to giving it a practical sense, gives fiction a necessary flexibility in times of broad access to cultural consumption”. As a result of their relative popularity particularly in middle class sectors several media spoke about ''En terapia'' from its sections of psychology and society. The ''Revista Ñ'' treated the issue of ethical problems of the discipline with the dignity of the patient, and the newspaper ''La Nación'' consulted several psychoanalysts about the way in which the series had emerged as a subject for comparison by several of their patients, and their opinion on the likelihood of the sessions shown.
