a few more:
Matchstick Men. Excellent movie where main character's therapy figures strongly into the plot. Sam Rockwell, Nick Cage..
Couples Retreat, fun comedy about couples therapy.
K-PAX. Really good stuff. Kevin Spacey's character believes he is from another planet. Others at the mental hospital he's at start to believe it too.

“We use our minds not to discover facts but to hide them. One of things the screen hides most effectively is the body, our own body, by which I mean, the ins and outs of it, its interiors. Like a veil thrown over the skin to secure its modesty, the screen partially removes from the mind the inner states of the body, those that constitute the flow of life as it wanders in the journey of each day.”
