Headshrinker. African tribesmen, who cut off the heads of their rivals and kept them as trophies. Used as a slang word for a psychiatrist or psychotherapist. The slang word shrink derives from headshrinker.

Don't know. Ask your shrink.

I personally think it comes from what happens to the money in your wallet after you pay for the visit.
