Since 1999, this site has grown to include hundreds of films which deal
with psychological issues. Some contain characters with mental
disorders, some include mental health professionals, and others reflect
dysfunctional family relationships. The accuracy of portrayal varies.
This is intentional, as I believe that there is value in identifying
what is inaccurate, as well as what conforms to diagnostic criteria or
ethical guidelines for psychologists.
The site is currently undergoing updating, revision, and improvement.
The list will now be limited to those movies with Internet Movie Database
viewer ratings of greater than 6.0 (on a scale from 1-10). New films are
being added, as well as resources, and additional information about selected
films. Stay tuned!
Enjoy your visit!
