Whereby patient session starts with therapist's bottom in designer chair amid wise pronouncement (10)
I believe the answer is:
psychiatry
'pronouncement' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for psychiatry that I've seen before include "Branch of medicine concerned with mental disorders" , "Trick cyclist's profession?" , "Treatment of the mind" , "Treatment of mental problems" , "Branch of medicine dealing with mental disorders" .)
