The Reel Mental Podcast with Dr. Marcia Sirota

Reel Mental is a podcast about the intersection of film and psychology

Host, Dr. Marcia Sirota, interviews directors, writers, actors and critics, to explore how mental health is portrayed on-screen. We discuss where movies and TV shows get it right and get it wrong when it comes to mental health.

Dr. Marcia’s approach is thoughtful, perceptive and accessible, making it easy for listeners to see themselves and their own journeys in the films being discussed.
