The League of Gentlemen's Jeremy Dyson has co-written and directed the new series.
Ben Cavey, executive producer, commented: "It's fantastic to bring the team back together for series two of Psychobitches.
"We have a whole new lineup of women from history getting a dose of modern-day therapy and the results promise to be just as clever, insightful and downright silly."
Saskia Schuster, commissioning editor for Sky Comedy, added: "We are really proud to be bringing Psychobitches back for a second series. We can look forward to lots of new characters, as well as re-visiting some of our favourites from series one.
"Since we launched the one-off in 2012, the series has become a key part of Sky Arts' comedy offering to our customers."
