OMG I MADE IT 1.1 THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE!!!

“Why can’t something nice also be true?” That really stuck with me. I LOVE cartoon therapy and really missed Picani

"Mind those walls, the fourth one's fragile" This is single handedly one of the best 4th wall jokes I have ever heard 🤣

"It didn't mean sacrificing who HE was." And that's a HUGE theme in Across the Spider-Verse. "Everyone keeps trying to tell me how MY story is supposed to go. Nah. Imma do my own thing." And that's what makes Miles Morales such a great character. He fights back against what others deem "normal" not because he's got the rose tinted glasses on as a newer Spiderperson, but because AT HIS CORE, he REFUSES to let being Spider-Man mean he can't also be Miles Morales. This is beautifully shown when he swings across NYC; he doesn't just swing. He parkours cause that's what MILES loves to do.

It's the way I almost cried over this episode. More people need to understand that art they do isn't stupid, it isn't wrong to relate to a character, and it's okay to not understand your feelings.

“The 4th one’s fragile!” I love Emile and his 4th wall breaking powers.

As a creative stuck in a dead end job… that is KILLING ME INSIDE… staying in the job just so people view me as “adult” and “put together” and to not disappoint the people who got me the job… this reinvigorated my desire to break out and pursue an artistic career path. Definitely subscribing👏

Gosh I have missed Picani so much. This episode was pure serotonin :) thank you so much Thomas!! made my day

The self portrait was beautiful. The amount of emotion they put into it was amazing. Always fun to see a new face in out favorite therapists room.

When I found that art therapy was a thing, I knew I wanted to go into that profession. I’m still in high school, but it’s something that not many people know about and it’s something that can help so many. This is definitely a video I’ll keep coming back to, not only because of the art, but also because I LOVE all things spider man

As someone who just finished getting her degree as an MFT in Art Therapy, this brought a smile to my face. You could say it even made me feel seen as the kind of therapist I could be ☺️. I mean I’d still do a few things different but not bad honestly!!

thomas, every time you grace my screen my day becomes so much better. thank you for all you do.

Another great quote from Stan Lee was “The best decision we made with his costume. He is completely covered, from head to toe. So any kid, black, white, yellow, or pink could see themselves as this hero”

I wish my therapist was like Emile Picani! Mine is so serious and sometimes can't take a joke.

Thomas knows his audience lmao❤ (edit) Personal Timestamps 18:32 19:30

Honestly really surprised that Sam was dealing with the stress of great expectations of school from their parents like me. Kinda cool when you get to really relate to fictional characters huh? Man I missed Dr. Picani, I hope to emulate the positivity and inspirations from shared interests into my own work with doing the same thing as a career someday

Ahhh yes the long awaited return of the best therapist. We missed you picani!

I always love how Picani plays up being super cartoony unapologetically which makes his clients underestimate him but then he always reveals he always knew what he was doing

New Cartoon Therapy!!! Hell yeah!!!!

This always makes me feel so much better. I got laughed at by my family because I wanted to go to college for art. They want me to be just as successful as my brothers with their aerospace engineering, and nuclear physics. It helps to see different ways or people who express themselves and their interests like I do.

I love the new tie, it's absolutely adorable!!!

For someone who's struggled with this exact mind set before changing from a biology major to visual arts multimedia major -something I love. I know how this can feel. Also, with being someone who's starting leading art therapy sessions on Monday. You just gave me an idea and good connection lead to use in those sessions. Thanks Thomas! 💜

“Why can’t something nice also be true?” This is something I always come back to that working to internalize that really helps me in working on my own self worth and ability to trust others positive evaluations of me.

Cartoon Therapy always makes me so emotional. It’s my free therapy.

This is...*exactly* what I needed right now. I'm glad you brought Cartoon Therapy back, Thomas. We all missed our cartoon-loving Dr. Picani. I literally got an award at school for my work in my art classes just this week. My art teacher had a whole speech about how hard I work and how she loves the results of every piece I make. After years of actual *Academic* achievements and awards my whole life, I could *feel* my parents disappointment that it was just for a hobby, and I was disappointed in myself. Especially since my grades have been slipping since I started highschool, and knowing I got an award again had me so excited. When I found at what it was for I cried. I *am* passionate about art, I've been working on and improving my art for over 6 years and it's something that has helped me in my roughest times. Thank you, Thomas.

IT'S BEEN THREE YEARS! I'm so happy to have it back :)

INTO THE SPIDERVERSE? AND PICANI? MY WORLD IS TRUELY COMPLETE

I can’t express enough how much I relied on my art to get me through my depression during middle school and Covid. Even if no one saw my artwork I still felt like the burden of stress was lifted whenever I drew what I was feeling even if it was dark

As a college student who is pursuing Art Therapy, this video was very inspiring! I have also wondered if my career choice isn’t what I should be pursuing. Art doesn’t promise a stable career path. But I know art brings me joy and helps me get through life’s many challenges. So I can’t wait to use my passion for art to do something I enjoy and help others as well! 💕

Good lord, she is literally me. First generation college student struggling with keeping my grades up and having trouble finding friends, worrying that my interests aren't stable enough to pursue-- Oof

This is a very great episode even for those of us who hate drawing because art is more than drawing. It can anything creative like music, writing, acting, photography, even dance. Anything creative is art and you can explore emotions through your passions. Even if you hate drawing, art as therapy comes in as many forms as there are art in general. Personally, I use songs I write myself as a medium to express my hardships and metaphors help me explain my feelings. Even if they're just for myself, every one tells a story.

I’m dubbing Thomas the new Gen Z Mr. Rogers. His videos have helped me so much and are so comforting to watch. It’s nice to know that someone is validating the more complicated feelings people might be going through (and referencing some of the best cartoons ever made while they’re at it) ☺

Tell me why this made me cry more than my actual therapy sessions

So comforting to listen to Picani again 💜

Picani is back!! This is exactly what I needed to regain my motivation and push through the last two weeks of the quarter

PICANI HAS RETURNED!! AND HE IS SO AMAZING!! OH MY GAWWWWWWD!!

I LOVE cartoon therapy and this episode did indeed make me cry. I use lots of different forms of art to figure out my own feelings and express them. when I share poetry I wrote about things I'm going through, the most common response is "mood." it's silly and not much, but it does make me feel a little less alone.

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! I’ve recently realized that I really like using poetry as a coping mechanism and was afraid that people would find it stupid or silly, so it’s nice to see one of my all time favorite characters (Emile Picani) say that using types of art forms to express your feelings is a healthy thing

I want to talk with Emile Picani in real life. I feel like I'd trust him more than actual therapists not to dismiss our experiences or try and fit us into a little box

These are much more relaxing and when I saw Sam I immediately bonded with them. I only go on zoom meetings to and they’re rlly different. She’s been failing to and I relate a lot.

Thanks for mentioning origami as a form of expression! I got really into it to give gifts from my friends, and it's helped me from lapsing in stressful situations, so it's nice to see people appreciate it.

finally! a cartoon therapy whose medium i've actually watched fully 😂 this was great, thomas and team!

first off, Sam in very relatable. secondly, that part where they talk about being lucky and not wanting to complain gives Learning New Things About Ourselves flashbacks

Stan lee did say he loves that spidermans suit is completely covered so anyone can be spiderman and its true that a lot of people can relate to Spiderman

OUR FAVORITE THERAPIST IS BACK!!

When I tell you I gasped so loud at this notification

Sam is the most relatable person from this series

I thought that by the end of the episode Sam would decide to major in art therapy. It’s a perfect middle ground between med school and art (I’m an art therapy major so maybe I’m biased..)

Love Love LOVE this! As someone who is looking at getting a degree to be a practicing art therapist, you captured what it is and how it helps PERFECTLY! I love cartoon therapy ❤❤❤

THE WAY I YELLED WHEN I SAW THE NOTIF

He's back! We love Dr. Picani! Also I love that with the hats the tags are hidden, in case ya got ya some family members that aren't so supportive! Thank you!

"Oh she's in the medical field, this wont connect with me" 4:32 "F*ck nevermind"

I wrote my Senior thesis about how animation should be a more respected art form, i used Spiderverse as an example of how amazing its gotten

It's so creepy how accurately these videos are timed in my life. This empowered me to make time for my creative side and start writing, drawing and reading again. Looking forward to it. Thank you for keeping on creating despite the challenges you might have in life❤️

As a student who just finished their first year of college, this was really nice to hear. Also it makes me happy to see Picani again!

Emile Pacani is definitely related to Patton spiritually.

I'm so glad this is back I love this series so much and that hat is looking Snazzy Dr. Picani

Jeez... this really hit home. First generation to go to college, went into medical transcription since I wasn't smart enough to be a nurse much less a doctor, expected to have a full schedule so I could stay on my parents' insurance as a dependent, commuting 10 miles everyday multiple times a day because of day and evening classes, overwhelming amounts of studying and assignments, realizing I'm definitely not smart enough for any of this, struggling without anyone who understands the stress cuz "it's just school," needing to escape from it so badly that I start ditching classes and just driving around the city, also develop an addiction to a certain big name mmorpg, go on academic probation because of how low my grades are, finally explain to my parents that a full schedule is too much and go to a half schedule, in school for twice as long as planned which costs my parents even more money (they were paying everything out of their own pockets, no loans), still struggling with the actual subject cuz medicine is HARD, eventually get kicked out of college in what was supposed to be the final year, never tell my parents, lie to them that I totally graduated no really I did pls don't ask to see my degree, and..... my father dies the same year, going to his grave probably thinking either that I was going to be fine or, since he's not stupid, knowing that I was lying and I was not going to ever be fine. Now here I am 20 years later, no degree, no job, living with my mother who pays for everything, knowing she won't be around much longer cuz she's 75 years old, and my future is as bleak as it can be. I'll likely end up homeless not long after she's gone. And this all could've been avoided if I had just told my parents 20 years ago that my real passion was cooking and I want to go to culinary school.

It's not too late to go to culinary school now. Sounds like you've had a real time of it, but you can still turn things around. You can work at an entry-level job part time and do culinary school part time, and you can take out loans to fund your schooling this time. Good luck out there, I hope you have the happy ending you deserve

I love your videos so much, you helped me understand and accept myself. Cartoon therapy is one of my favorite series’s.

I learned about how I was art therapy-ing myself through my personal art. Now I wanna be an art therapist. And I just watched across the spider verse = I’m gonna love this

Its so cool to think about art like this. I think a lot of people would benefit from taking some advice from this episode

Cartoon Therapy Is Back YAY!!!!!!! 😃🎉

OOOOOOOOOO CARTOON THERAPY IS BACKKKK!!! Legit my favorite Thomas Sanders series other than Sanders side!! EDIT: I just finished watching and wow.. Thomas, your videos have been what I turn to when I'm having a bad day, or when I need to see the light and love in the world. I've never met you (though I'd love to) and you don't know me, but I want you to know that the art you are creating resonates deeply with many people including myself. I've laughed and cried and had a great time watching your videos, and honestly I think I love Sanders sides and Cartoon therapy in particular because they have such a good and important message to transmit, and in an age where it's so easy to lose the sun behind the storm clouds, I'm glad there's people like you that can show us the light still exists. Thank you Thomas. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your creations!

“Jiminutty” reference to past episodes 🤩

glad to see cartoon therapy back!

I missed Cartoon Therapy so much! This video had such amazing themes in it I loved it❤️

As the child of a therapist, and someone who has been involved with nerd culture all throughout my life, Picani always seems so accurate to the way I view the world. Multi-media narritaves are and always have been one of the ways we as humans talk about mental health (among other things) and Picani makes that gloriously easy to understand with the ways these scripts are written. Thank you, Thomas (and friends) for bringing us such a wonderful and truthful character. I feel seen.

This made me cry, even if I knew everything you said already. Thank you so much, Thomas and everyone behind this!

I'm early! I love this movie and love the cartoon therapy ❤, thank you Thomas for making these videos. They've made me feel happy since I started watching your channel years ago 😊

IVE WAITED FOR THIS APPOINTMENT FOR YEARS. HES BACK!!!

WOOO!! New Cartoon Therapy video! Glad to see Emile back again!

ITS ITS ITS EMILE!!! THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND!!!

OMG CARTOON THERAPY AFTER SO LONG ❤❤❤

Inspiration for these fictional characters and the struggles they go through have to come from somewhere. Even if the characters aren't real, the struggles are

I love Thomas in the sense that if he was my dad I would cry of happiness

as an artist this is so good for me. i hope that these sort of things continue… thank you thomas and happy pride month

This video was so relatable I'm so happy that I had into the Spiderverse and spiderman and in general as a teen it helped me picked myself up again

I didn't even know this was back I'm so happy I've waited so long

me and my therapist just started doing art therapy the last few sessions and it's really cool to see that represented in some media! I was so happy to come back to your channel and see this series got another video it's one of my favorites. It also really destigmatizes therapy which is great for all the people who may be scared to get help or talk about it. Thank you for what you do Sanders

It’s so good to see picani again! We all missed him!!!

thomas and crew, i know it’s been a long time since you’ve heard from me, but i’ve been going through a rough time recently, and i’ve been sobbing throughout this whole episode. thank you. 💛

Yes this is my 2nd favorite series that thomas made and I'm glad he made another

Dr. Picani thank you! After watching this therapy session, I came to realize that I don't need to practice my art everyday. The reason, it's because every time I practice it everyday I end up in frustration. With that mindset, I end up not having fun, and trying to be perfect. But if I learn to just take my time with my art and have fun, then it works out better than ever!

GOSH I MISSED PICANI SO MUCH!!!! I really loved this episode💗

Aw this means so much as a person who just switched their major to art. Do what makes you happy!

Hey Thomas!! I'm a transmasculine person and Emile picani has always been one of my favorite characters, when I wanted to experiment with new names I thought "why not Emile?" The name has been stuck with me since I've seen your first cartoon therapy episode and I cannot go back!!! It's my name!!! Thank you creating such a comfort character bringing him to life and helping me be my true authentic self!! Sincerely, Emile❤️

Im struggling in my first year of college right now and so much of what Sam is feeling is relatable to me. My Eng 101 class puts so much stress on figuring out the next steps in your life, and that I should have a five year plan, know what Im going to major in and what degrees I want, my carreer path, and its all so overwhelming. I've found myself doing a lot more crochet lately and also, starting work on a webcomic. Something I can do just because I want to not because I need a stable carreer. This video has really helped me understand some of that art Ive been making

Its great to see Picani again :3 this videos always give me so much comfort, i love seeing them when im feeling anxious. This video in particular hits really close to home, i have been overwhelmed from homework lately and drawing helps me to calm down and think clearer so it was a nice reminder that i can take a moment to make art to calm my self down

Watching this while studying, I missed this series so much omg

Picaniiiiii is baaaack and more rugged than ever!

As a pre med mexican American first generation student, this made me cry I have questioned my courses recently as MCAT is coming up. You summed up the feeling of the inability to escape family expectations. I hope this helps others who are unsure of what the next step is in their life. Life is a wild ride and it's alright not knowing what's coming next.

Omg it’s been 7 years and I loved to look at all the old Vines it feel good to see you again dude man I’ve missed both you and your videos 🥺😊

I relate an ungodly amount to Sam and this really helped me! Thank you so much🫶

Art Therapy is actually how I got started into my passion for art. This was an amazing video. ❤❤❤
