Sorry, his psych was played by an actress named Gina Hecht, who also did some work back in the late 70's on Mork and Mindy.
Did Carrie Fisher play George's Psych?
Fans clarify that George's psychologist was played by Gina Hecht, not Carrie Fisher as one poster believed, citing her previous work on Mork and Mindy.

I know: it wasn't Carrie Fisher. It looked 'somewhat' like her, but it certainly wasn't! Nuff said.
The actress who played George's psychologist is Gina Hecht as Dana Foley.
She might be best remembered for playing Jay Thomas's sister in the second season of Mork and Mindy.
Her name is Gina Hecht, a character actress from Houston whose TV career dates back to at least 'Mork and Mindy'.

The actress you are referring to is Gina Hecht. She is a low-profile actress, and has been in such movies as Night Shift, where she played Henry Winkler's fiance.
