Shawn es un joven muy distinto a los demás. Desde pequeño, su padre, detective de profesión, le enseñaba a fijarse en todos los detalles de su alrededor, incluso hasta en los más nimios. Tanto que sus extraordinarios poderes de observación le hacen ser sospechoso de un crimen que no ha cometido. Sin embargo, gracias a su talento, termina convenciendo a la policía de que se trata de poderes psíquicos. De este modo, el joven se hace pasar desde entonces por un falso médium. El joven Shawn sabe aprovechar su inusual habilidad de observar. Y es que, además de trabajar como asesor de la policía, monta un negocio para enriquecerse a partir de su propia farsa. Con la ayuda de su mejor amigo, Gus, el joven protagonista pone en marcha una agencia de investigación llamada Psych donde, de manera picaresca, intentan solucionar los casos más insospechados, dejando a las fuerzas del orden totalmente impresionadas, aunque siempre quedan los escépticos.
