Dr. Neven Bell is Adrian's new therapist beginning in the Season Seven premiere (Mr. Monk Buys a House) after Adrian's original therapist, Dr. Kroger, died of a heart attack. This character was introduced after Stanley Kamel, who played Dr. Kroger, died of a heart attack between production of Seasons Six and Seven.Though Adrian is skeptical of his new therapist at first, Dr. Bell was able to win his confidence though several small gestures (such as having Adrian's favorite bottled water available, a supply of wipes handy during their introductory handshake, and Dr. Bell's office containing a painting which previously belonged to the late Dr. Kroger.)Additionally, Natalie pointed out that Dr. Bell's name (Neven) is a palindrome as a comfort to Adrian. Adrian, however, points out that it isn't a perfect palindrome, because of the first N being capitalized.
