Cinema Therapy
Making sense of life, one blockbuster at a time.
Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and professional filmmaker Alan Seawright break down your favorite movies, searching the characters, themes, and plots to find things you can use to improve your mental health, your life, your looks? and your cardiovascular fitness (nope.)
Join them and their guests as they try to improve life, laugh at each other, and keep Alan from crying over everything.
