M-x doctor
From its commentary [1] in the source code:
;;; Commentary:
;; The single entry point `doctor', simulates a Rogerian analyst using

;; of pseudo-AI.
From the docstring [2] of the command:
"Switch to *doctor* buffer and start giving psychotherapy."

Is it because you are the one holding the ctrl and meta keys there that you came to me? C-x k
