description: Film functions not only as a form of entertainment but also as an educational  medium that conveys social issues to the public. Good Will Hunting is a film that  explores themes of mental health and trauma recovery among survivors. This study  employs Roland Barthes’ semiotic analysis to examine the representation of trauma  healing by uncovering both denotative and connotative meanings embedded in  symbols, dialogues, and visual elements within the therapeutic interactions between  the characters Will Hunting and Sean Maguire. A descriptive qualitative method is  utilized, incorporating semiotic analysis to identify verbal and non-verbal signs in  key scenes of the film. The findings indicate that therapeutic communication in the  film is depicted through four phases: orientation, identification, exploration, and  resolution. Core principles of therapeutic communication—such as empathy,  openness, emotional validation, and respect—emerge as essential components  contributing to the effectiveness of the therapy. This research offers insights into  the role of therapeutic communication in trauma recovery and highlights the  potential of film as an effective medium for mental health education. These findings  hold relevance for the development of empathetic communication approaches in  addressing the needs of trauma survivors.
