A large majority of our film will take place in a therapy session, meaning that we of course therefore need to find one; or at least a room that strongly resembles one. We therefore contacting a few local therapists, hoping that perhaps one or two of them would be able to provide us with a location. Contacting local therapists would also be beneficial as it would allow us to gather a more informed perspective on the subject of mental illness, therefore allowing us to portray it as respectfully and accurately as possible. Among the therapists we contacted, only one respond to our query. Her response can be seen in the screenshot below.
Unfortunately, she was unable to provide us with a location. In honesty, we foresaw this eventuality due to the rather hectic nature of a therapist's occupation. Nonetheless, she was able to provide us with another contact: Cornerstone. We subsequently contacted Cornerstone in the hope that perhaps they would be able to provide a location, or perhaps just a little more insight onto the sensitive subject that our film deals with. Sadly, they too were unable to provide a location as a result of their offices being used almost all day, every day of the week.
Thankfully however, they were kind enough to provide us with a photograph of one of their offices. They explained that a few of the essential items for a therapist's office include: comfy chairs, tissues, a clock, and a plant. With this in mind, it should now be possible to find a location on campus that can be rearranged to emulate the environment of a therapist's office. We will begin our search soon.
