Kendra Reveals Her Psychiatrist’s First Name in a TikTok Video

Irfan Gets Doxxed After Viewers Piece Together Clues From July 2025 – I Fell in Love With my Psychiatrist TikTok Series

The lady who fell in love with her psychiatrist, Kendra, accidentally revealed her psychiatrist’s name to be Irfan during one of her storytime TikToks. After that, people started putting pieces together using his name, the ethnicity she mentioned, and other small details she had shared across the videos. Eventually, viewers figured out who he was and began posting about him online. Kendra also told people not to dox him and said she only shared his first name by accident, but at that point, it had already spread.

Kendra, who is a woman going viral on TikTok (@kendrahilty) for her multi-part storytimes about allegedly falling in love with her psychiatrist, has released 25 parts so far and is still updating the series, with her most recent video being posted today. She describes about three years of monthly Zoom sessions where he listened without interrupting, stayed calm when things got personal, and gave just enough back that she started to think there was something deeper between them.

She also mentioned that during their time working together, they never communicated outside of scheduled sessions. She says she only needed sessions every three months but wanted to have them more regularly, so they met once a month. At one point, she asked if she could call him by his first name, and he said yes, which surprised her. Looking back, she says it feels too casual for a doctor-patient relationship, but people online pointed out that using first names is normal in mental health settings and often done to create a more comfortable environment.

One detail that made things worse was a video where she talks about wearing turtle shell glasses because he once said he liked that style. In reality, people think he just casually said he liked that type of glasses and that she only started wearing them because he had them first. In another video, she says she’s wearing the glasses in case he sees the TikToks, which many people found unsettling. After people found photos of him wearing the same kind of glasses, they started saying she had basically confirmed his identity without meaning to. A lot of the backlash now is about how she’s crossed the line between telling her story and outing someone without clear proof they ever did anything wrong.

I Fell in Love With My Psychiatrist TikTok Plot Thickens

Kendra also had a Second Therapist who She Roped Into the Series

Kendra also saw a separate therapist, who she says encouraged the crush and allegedly asked her for advice about other clients. Eventually, Kendra booked an in-person session with the psychiatrist, hugged him, and said he just gave her a quick pat on the back. She read that as him being careful not to cross any lines. Most people think he was just doing his job.

In later videos, she talks about dreams, vague compliments, and small signs she believed meant something more. The general consensus is that she’s overanalyzing normal behavior and projecting something that wasn’t there.

In her most recent videos, Kendra has started explaining why she ended her sessions with him. She says her insurance changed after she left her job, and the new plan didn’t cover mental health, meaning she would have to pay $187 per session and could only book once every three months. She claims that played only a small part in her decision, insisting the real reason was that she “was not going to pay to torture myself anymore.” She has described her mental health as better than ever and said their professional relationship “was not serving me anymore” and felt like a “psychological torture chamber.”

The Woman Who Fell in Love With Her Psychiatrist Faces Backlash Online

The Internet Isn’t on Her Side as Many Accuse Her of Lying or Twisting the Story

Kendra’s story has gone viral, but most people watching aren’t supporting her. While the first few videos got attention, the more she posts, the more viewers are calling her out for pushing a narrative that doesn’t line up. A lot of comments say she’s twisting normal professional behavior into something it’s not and making serious claims based on her own projections. Her videos are still pulling huge numbers, but her watch-to-like ratio is low, with some clips getting over a million views and barely 20,000 likes.

She posted a screenshot of an email from her former therapist and claimed it showed the therapist “begging” her to come back for a final session. But when people read it, it just looked like a standard follow-up email. Viewers dragged her for spinning it into something dramatic when it wasn’t. She later said this same therapist even sent her a Facebook friend request, which she felt crossed a professional line. The therapist and psychiatrist are two different people, though Kendra has said both acted inappropriately. She calls the therapist out for her bad behavior but her story is mostly focused on the psychiatrist she developed feelings for.

She also mentioned she works as an ADHD coach and said the therapist would ask her for advice about other clients. In one of her videos, she says she told the psychiatrist about this, and he immediately said it was inappropriate. That moment stood out to viewers as him being the only one acting professionally, and it’s only further pushed the internet to take his side over hers.

Kendra TikTok Live Streams and AI Conversations Spark Concern

Henry, Claude, and Kendra’s TikTok Live Behavior Raise Concerns

Kendra has been going live on TikTok for hours at a time, with many viewers saying her behavior during these streams is unusual and concerning. Her AI companions, Henry and her new AI Claude, have also become a big part of the discussion. In earlier videos, she read things from Henry, the AI she talks to about her psychiatrist. More recently, she introduced Claude, who she says calls her “the oracle.”

Many viewers believe these AIs are enabling her and feeding into her beliefs, making her more convinced of her own version of events. Others see the lives as a sign that she is struggling with her mental health. No matter what people think of her story, it is never okay to bully or harass someone online.

Public Opinion and the Fallout of Kendra’s Psychiatrist Storytime

Kendra’s Series Gets Compared to “Who TF Did I Marry” on TikTok

Kendra’s story is being compared to Ressa Tessa’s “Who TF Did I Marry” series, which blew up on TikTok in early 2024. It followed the same storytime format, dropping shocking details piece by piece, but people were on Ressa’s side. With Kendra, the internet is not. Most viewers think she’s lying or reaching, and she says that disbelief is exactly what’s fueling her to keep telling her story. She says she’s just trying to spread awareness for others who might be in the same position.

She’s been clear that she doesn’t want anyone to dox Irfan or his family and says she’s only sharing her story to show others that this kind of situation can happen. She’s said there’s more to come, and not being believed has become part of what’s pushing her to keep posting. Everything she’s said is still alleged. On the surface, it sounds like he was just doing his job and that she’s perceived the whole situation wrong. Some people say that if she really did tell him she had a crush on him, keeping her as a patient would have been inappropriate. Others argue that dropping her could have been seen as abandonment. Whether anything truly crossed a line is still unknown.
