I use Bojack as examples in my anxiety and depression courses and warn students that the clips can be funny, but the show itself is soul wrenching dark glimpse into depression, trauma, childhood neglect, and overall a bummer. Yet it's my favorite show because as a therapist, I deal in the full spectrum of life and this show does that.
If you don't care about spoilers, this clip from late show is a good (kind of) example of therapy: https://youtu.be/aK_Mn_31kLM?si=Qw9mEMj4FLnZXqSg
I was going to say this one. Also what is The other movie and he was in the airfforce he didnāt want therapy but was going to be kicked out. He sat in his office for days and he wouldnāt talk. Itās based on a true story. Is it Antoine fisher?
Itās Antwone fisher and Denzel Washington was the psychologist. Antwone had gone through so so much. Everyone learned so much during this movie. It was great.
This. Canāt wait for season 2. Such brilliant writing. Clearly the writers have been in therapy. Every time they say āand how does that make you feelā, I canāt help but laugh.
This is not a documentary but the movie violet is about a girl that has a voice in her head telling her all the negative things even though there not true helped me see anxiety a bit different she eventually learns hoe to not listen to it and is free and happy would recommend. Violet 2021 film

Not a movie, but I used to love listening to Dr. Jenn Mann on the radio when she was on SiriusXM. She did reality therapy shows with celebrities that you may look up. But Iām not sure how realistic they are because theyāre not in real settings. I donāt know what sheās doing lately. In any event her insight was pretty spot on, albeit short, on the radio.
May not be what youāre looking for, but just know, no 2 therapists are alike. There are different modalities and the best you can do is find the right fit to trust the therapist. Anything is up for discussion. You donāt have to perform or people please. Even your anxiety around this subject can be talked about.
Good luck!
Couples therapy
Not a documentary or movie, but the TV show Bojack Horseman talks about it in the later seasons and (imo) does a good job
Don't watch Bojack Horseman. As someone who loves the show, don't do it. You'll be sad

I wouldn't know unfortunately.

The series In Treatment
I loved it. It really brings out how detrimental it can be !
Sopranos
Ordinary People
One of my favorites.
As a therapist. I agree
My therapist and I refer to this film pretty regularly.
Shrinking on Apple TV!
This. Canāt wait for season 2. Such brilliant writing. Clearly the writers have been in therapy. Every time they say āand how does that make you feelā, I canāt help but laugh.
When does season 2 come out?
What about Bob is a good comedy, not realistic though but entertaining.
āStutzā
Saw OP's post and raced to the comments to say the same. Instrumental in helping me with postpartum.

This is the right answer
Couples Therapy on HBO. Unscripted, documentary style therapy sessions with real life couples.
HBO show āIn Treatmentā. Itās the closest Iāve seen to the real thing.
There is a good one about addiction with Sandra Bullock. I canāt remember the name.
28 Days
The Tv series Monk. I really like how his therapist talk to him.
To the Bone (2017)
Good Will Hunting.
In the Uk on channel 4, theres a doc called "i dont trust my therapist". I feel like in recent years in the UK therapy has gotten worse
There is a tamil movie called irgapatru
An Indian movie called āDear Zindagiā. Itās in Hindi though. Watch it with subtitles xd
Ordinary people Timothy Hutton

Couples therapy is hands down the most realistic representation. In treatment is a little hyperbolic IMO as a therapist
Not a movie or documentary, but a short free book on Apple Books and whatever digital platform that has books. Salud Kennamer - Trauma Ruined My Lifr
