JESSICA SEES A SHRINK!

By RICK EGUSQUIZA
Jessica Simpson
set off a full-fledged
paparazzi frenzy when
she headed into a
Beverly Hills doctor's
office, sparking speculation
that she was consulting a
cosmetic surgeon.
Just weeks ago her little sis
Ashlee zipped into the Beverly
Hills medical building of a well-known
plastic surgeon for a quick nip
and tuck to her nose — a story broken exclusively
by The ENQUIRER.
So shutterbugs felt sure 25-year-old Jess
was getting a little fine-tuning as she entered
the medical building of Dr. Arnie Klein, a top
cosmetic surgeon.
But The ENQUIRER has learned that while
Jessica did consult with a medical specialist on
May 19, it had nothing to do with improving her
looks. She went to see a psychiatrist.
"No one knows for sure what Jessica discussed,
but it was clear that
she was seeking
help for
something
very troubling,"
said an inside source. "Her
hand was trembling as
she reached for the
door, and she looked
like she was desperately
trying to fight
back tears as she
went back out to face
the world."
Added another
source: "It's anyone's
guess what the real issue is.
But there's lots of speculation.
"Jessica's definitely not over Nick.
Their divorce is steamrolling
through, but she
hasn't really looked
happy since they split.
"And then there's her
father. Joe Simpson
single-handedly put
Jessica on the map.
She's fighting hard now to assert her
own independence — and that's not
easy for a young woman who's been
told all her life what to do, what to say
and what to wear.
"Whatever her issues, Jessica should
be commended for seeking professional
help. It's the only way she
can truly become her own woman."
