Abstract: | This article deals with current representations of psychotherapy in movies and television and focuses on the recent TV series In Treatment. It is discussed if and how this and other TV series might contribute to a change in the public image of psychotherapy. This discussion is based on studies investigating the public image of psychotherapy and its image within the media as well as the potential to use movies and TV as a stage for psychotherapeutic processes. Among several TV series dealing with psychotherapy, In Treatment plays a special role because of its conception as an intimate play. The series is described and discussed in relation to the question how realistic psychotherapy is staged and whether the hero of the series ??Dr. Paul Weston?? can be used as a model in psychotherapeutic training. |
