Movie Therapy The combination of images, music, dialogue, lighting, camera angles, and sound effects in a film mimic thoughts and feelings that occur in our consciousness. Movies draw us into the viewing experience, but at the same time afford a unique opportunity to retain a perspective outside the experience, the observer's view. Therefore films are particularly well suited to facilitate the therapeutic process, to depict psychological phenomena, and to discuss ethical dilemmas.

This first-of-its-kind program offers the unique opportunity to receive a comprehensive education in Treatment and Education through Cinema, to get certified in this field, and receive CE credits. The course teaches how to use the power of movies in the therapeutic process of adults as well as children and adolescents. Clinicians also learn to integrate the transformational effects of films into their work through Positive Cinema Therapy. They deepen their knowledge of the complex and sometimes dry information in the DSM through movie descriptions in an enjoyable and emotionally engaged way. And students of this program will be able to apply their decision-making process to legal and ethical considerations through the presentation of a series of film vignettes and ethical commentary on these vignettes. The sections Therapeutic Ethics in Movies and Therapeutic Boundaries in Films fulfill California and other states' ethics and law requirements. These parts of the program may qualify for an insurance discount. The entire certification program includes six (6) online courses, a 20 minute interview with Dr. Birgit Wolz and an extensive listing of therapeutic themes and relevant movies.

Certification Program is comprised of the following 6 online courses, movies-themes list and interview: Cinema Therapy 4 CE Credit Online Course; Positive Psychology and the Movies 5 CE Credits Online Course; Cinema Therapy with Children and Adolescents 5 CE Credits Online Course; Learn About the DSM Through Movies, 4 CE Credits; Therapeutic Ethics in Movies, 6 CE Credits; Therapeutic Boundaries in Films, 6 CE Credits; Cinema Therapy Interview with Dr. Wolz; Listing of therapeutic themes and relevant movies.
