BackgroundEdit

Once an ordinary pschiatrist, Dr. Banks worked at the institution where Emily (then known as Amanda) was held for evaluation while her father was awaiting his trial. Victoria came and suggested that it was better for Amanda to be institutionalized and kept away from her father. When Dr. Banks dismissed her, saying that was for her decide, Victoria offered to get her a private practice with a steady stream of wealthy clients in exchange for her help. Dr. Banks accepted and got herself a clinic in the Hamptons, Victoria being the first of many patients from her social circle.
