Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. It looks like Michael was seeing the psychiatrist (according to Mr. Schindler in that article) sometime before Valentine's Day, 1993. That's when the fight between MS and Mr. Schindler happened. Mr. Schindler said in that article that MS had started to attack Suzanne before his incident with MS, and that he (Bob) stopped Michael. Wonder what that was all about.

At any rate, it seems unlikely that the Caplan you or nicmarlo found would be the same one, since the issue date of the license doesn't seem right. Is it possible that the name was Kaplan vs. Caplan? I know that in other news accounts I have seen the old GAL as Richard Pierce, when in reality it was Richard Pearse. Sounds the same, spelled differently.

Good point on it possibly being spelled differently. Quite possibly the person who interviewed Mr. Schindler 'assumed' it was spelled with a 'C.'

Could it possibly be one of these doc's? (And I'm thinking more likely Peter Kaplan):
