The 50-year-old actress said her PTSD presented itself in the form of nightmares. To combat this, she went through therapy to learn how to get her dreams in check. It apparently worked, being as Perrette was the strange, lighthearted animal dreams.

Perrette shows no signs of returning to NCIS, but she will be back on CBS for the fall TV season. She will star in Broke, a new sitcom where Perrette plays a single mom who takes in her sister’s family, who just recently lost all their money after living wealthy lives for years. No premiere date has been set yet.
