Processing and exploring struggles through TV shows and movies

Often people will identify or strongly not identify with  particular TV shows, movies or fictional characters. ​The shows, movies and characters we identify with, or alternatively strongly do not identify with, can tell us a lot about our mental health, our needs, desires, struggles, fears and dreams. This course helps you examine and process whatever you are struggling with and its effects on you through the TV shows, movies or characters that you identify or strongly don't identify with. This course can also be helpful to those who are not struggling with anything specific but want to engage in self-reflection, further examine your identity or anything else that is happening for you.​

Identity

Often, especially when something hard happens in our lives, we can lose our sense of identity. It can leave us wrestling with questions such as "who am I," or "what is my purpose in life." This loss of identity and the questions that come with it can cause a lot of disruption to our mental health and self-esteem. This course uses a range of techniques to help you process, explore and define your identity and purpose in life.

Moving to a new country is hard.

Nightmares

Just about everyone, at one point in time or another, will have recurring nightmares or dreams that bother them. Even if you are not having the exact same nightmare every night, struggling with frequent nightmares can not only be exhausting but also painful and confusing. During this course we will use specific techniques to explore your nightmares; the patterns that may be present in them, the things that may be causing them, and the meaning behind them.

Fictional writing can be a great way to explore every day issues or the bigger issues such as your identity or long term hopes and dreams. This course centers around teaching you how to use fictional writing to strengthen your mental health and wellness. You do not have to be creative or a writer to benefit from fictional writing. The focus is on the different thought pathways and perspectives that it opens up, rather than the finished product.

Using art for self-reflection, self-care, self-exploration and problem solving

Art has a way of forcing you to use different parts of your brain which, in turn, opens different thought pathways and gives you different perspectives. You do not have to be an artist to benefit from art. Instead, in this course we will utilize different types of art to help you explore any issues that you are dealing with or anything you want to further explore. We will then work together to develop a plan for how you can incorporate art into your self-care routine or use art to better your self-awareness and your life in general.
