Do movies help you to heal? To grow? To connect? Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and professional filmmaker Alan Seawright draw from their experiences on the job to explore the psychology of your favorite films! Your "Internet Dads" combine humor, heart, and vulnerability to share healthy relationship skills, mental health awareness, and movie-making magic.
What do we have in common with heroes? Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright react to a bunch of Disney heroes and diagnose them. They discuss what we can learn from these heroes, because just like us, it's their choices—not their diagnoses—that define them. The Disney heroes: Rapunzel from Tangled, Quasimodo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, Giselle from Enchanted, and Arthur from The Sword in the Stone.
How do you learn to accept what can't be fixed? Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are joined by Lee from @FilmTheory to take a look at the finale of The Amazing Digital Circus. They discuss the emotional journey and conclusion for the characters, and they theorize why this show took off with the youths!
What happens when we don't receive safety, love, and belonging? Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are taking a look at Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein. They talk about anxious attachment, intergenerational patterns of unhealthy behavior, and how to find your humanity.
What happens when you let fear lead? Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright celebrate spooky season by reacting to ParaNorman. They talk about bullying, being the weird kid, and what adults can learn from kids. Happy spooky season!
