Reflect on Stutz (2022) through the lens of Chapters 15 and 16 (covering mental health, therapy, and treatment approaches):
Therapeutic Techniques and Theories
Identify one or two strategies Dr. Phil Stutz discusses that align with specific treatment approaches you’ve studied (e.g., cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, humanistic therapy). Explain how these methods reflect key principles from your textbook and discuss any possible challenges or limitations in applying them to real-life situations.
Therapeutic Alliance and Self-Reflection
Consider how the relationship between Jonah Hill and Dr. Stutz shapes the therapeutic process. How does their dynamic influence Jonah’s willingness to explore his mental health? In what ways might self-reflection become more powerful or more difficult when there is a personal connection between client and therapist?
Personal Application and Critical Self-Awareness
Identify at least one specific tool or technique from the film you find both practical and meaningful. Critically assess how and why you would apply it to your own life—what personal challenges or experiences make this tool particularly relevant? Think about potential obstacles to using the technique and consider strategies for overcoming them.
Beyond the Documentary
Reflect on how the insights from Stutz inform your broader understanding of mental health treatments. How does this documentary challenge or reinforce common perceptions about therapy and the therapist’s role? What questions does it raise about the effectiveness or accessibility of certain types of treatment, especially for diverse populations?
