Psychotherapy and Behavioral Therapy

Cinema therapy, also called movie therapy, is a form of expressive therapy, alongside art, music and dance therapy, used for medical and mental health issues and also practiced as a form of self-help. Reported areas of improvement include self-confidence and self-esteem, and clinicians can combine it with other approaches, including cognitive-behavioral and behavioristic therapies.
