Mental Health-Themed Drama Debuts on North American VOD Platforms and DVD on October 22, 2024

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, October 22, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, has just released the mental health-themed drama WOUNDED HEALER, which is now available to rent/own on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, and DVD, starting on October 22, 2024.

WOUNDED HEALER follows Manda, a 30-year-old therapist grappling with her own mental health challenges while raising her teenage children in Atlanta. As she navigates the pressures of her career and a resurgence of her childhood autoimmune illness, she reluctantly joins “The Wounded Healers Group” — a support network for counselors. Through this journey, Manda returns to her North Carolina hometown to confront her past and family, ultimately learning that prioritizing her own healing is essential for her well-being.

Directed by Aleshia Cowser Jackson (known for BET’s Bricked and Millennial) and written by Shamanda Burston of Lulu B. Productions, WOUNDED HEALER was produced by Tiffani-MiShelle Johnson and Qulanda R. Moore, with Shamanda Burston and Izylah Collins serving as executive producers. WOUNDED HEALER features an ensemble cast that includes Katelynn Bennett (Lifetime’s Breaking Girl Code, BET’s A Christmas Surprise, Paramount’s Zoey 102), Rashan Ali Smith (BET’s All The Queen’s Men, TV One’s Sister Circle), Christal Jordan (OWN’s Iyanla Vanzant: Fix My Life, contributor to Good Day Atlanta and Rolling Out), along with Cheryl Frazier, McKenzie Grace Williams, Asher Robinson, Michael Mau, Dexter Lamont, Dexter Matthews, and Moses Jones.

“As a licensed therapist and counselor educator, I’m excited to unveil my first cinematherapy film, WOUNDED HEALER,” said writer and executive producer Shamanda Burston. “Inspired by psychologist Carl Jung’s belief that the best healers tend to their own wounds, this film reveals the authentic lives of those who help others. It reminds us that we all face mental health struggles, inviting us to spark meaningful conversations and embrace the shared journey of healing—because it’s not just possible; it’s a path we all walk together.”

Freestyle Digital Media negotiated the deal to acquire WOUNDED HEALER directly with independent sales rep and distribution consultant, Liz Manashil.
