This movie is such an important piece for psychology and I really recommend anyone who plans to major in it to watch this movie. It shows sometimes tradition doesn't work and is a great example of how to form common ground with your client , will is a very relatable character for a lot of troubled teens and watching this with detached teenage clients is a great common ground
It’s not your fault

What is an adjective ?
Have no idea? Don't worry I struggle with these to ! Keep reading and learn with me :)
So an adjective is a word that would modify a noun which if you don't know what a noun is some examples are (a person , places different things or different ideas!) to modify a noun with a adjective let's use the noun dog as a example! I feel that's a easy one and who doesn't like doggies ><
SO to modify the noun dog with a adjective you can use the adjective happy! Which would make it “happy dog“ your basically just adding onto the noun, if that makes any sense to anyone. Happy makes sense when regarding the dog because it describes the dogs other possible adjective's could be sad dog , tired dog , hungry dog , playful dog , thirsty dog and so on !
So recap!
An adjective is a word that modifies a noun for exp a person places thing or idea if you have something like the noun dog you use the adjective happy to modify it because the adjective happy can describe the dogs emotional state
