According to TMZ, Weinstein was reportedly said to have finished the sex addiction course and his psychologist said he “fully invested in the programme”.
The beleagured producer is said to have focused on "dealing with his anger, his attitude toward others, boundary work and the beginnings of work on empathy".
He is said to have showed up for all the meetings and “was fully engaged" despite a “ton of distractions”.
The psychologist told TMZ: "There were things that triggered [Weinstein's] anger and our job was to help him recognise where it was coming from and how to control it.
“But he was not venting about some conspiracy to get him. It was an appropriate display of anger."
A representative later reportedly said Weinstein would stay in Arizona for another month to avoid distractions.
The Sun Online has contacted Weinstein’s representatives for a comment on his treatment.
Weinstein was said to have been falling asleep during therapy sessions and ranting about conspiracies against him.
However, a source who is close to Weinstein has denied such behaviour took place and said the Hollywood producer 'still insists he's not a rapist'

After a number of women came forward to make allegations against Weinstein, it is believed he voluntarily checked himself into a £30,000-a-month rehab centre in Arizona to seek treatment for sex addiction.
However claims suggest Weinstein is not taking therapy seriously with allegations that he has been falling asleep and using his mobile phone which is banned, Page Six has reported.
A source claimed that Weinstein arrived 15 minutes late to a session.
It added: "Then when it was his [Weinstein's] turn to speak, he launched into a speech about how this is all a conspiracy against him."
The source also said that as others at the clinic shared their personal stories, Weinstein "fell asleep in his chair".
It said: "He was only woken up by the ringing of his smuggled mobile phone [which is banned at the facility]."
Another source who is close to Weinstein denied such behaviour and said Weinstein "still insists he's not a rapist".
It added: "The characterisation of what he said and what happened at the group session isn't true."

He probably can't get better. He would have to figure out why he has the urge to overpower others and I doubt he considers that urge to even be a defect. It wouldn't be worth the grief and introspection to him.
If he even comprehends introspection.
