Clinical psychologist Dr. Ali Mattu spent a decade treating anxiety disorders at New York City's top hospitals.
He became frustrated by the mental health care system’s inability to meet the increasing needs of the public related to anxiety, depression, and suicide. He shifted his focus to public education to create more scalable forms of mental health support.
Dr. Mattu believes social support - our ability to turn towards friends, family, and strangers for help - is our greatest strength and the essential skill to navigate our global mental health crises. At a time when many are feeling isolated and anxious about the future, Dr. Mattu shows us how to help each other overcome the challenges we face.
Dr. Mattu has a license in clinical psychology from California (PSY34269) and New York (020357).

Brilliant.
I need to ask myself these questions. Thank you❤
I thought id Telehealth, and for some it works, but it really limits for teens and kids
Well, the first question is already quite difficult to answer for me. I genuinely don't know what I'm afraid of. I don't even know anymore if I'm really socially anxious or if I'm just over exaggerating. Many symptoms seem to match, but many triggers seem to mismatch for me. For example I'm not afraid of being judged or seen anxious and I don't have problems looking someone (even strangers) into the eyes. Starting a conversation or joining one tho is IMPOSSIBLE. Most probably it's the fear of being rejected, but thinking about rejection doesn't really feel strong enough to power the anxiety. Idk anymore what my problem is; it's just exhausting being lonely and feeling like I couldn't do anything against it although I could and should.
I’m just going to say that if you’re watching this video you’re a really good person. 💛
Should this job be only for grandparents with life experience? Cause all you do is listen and talk.
what's the therapy fo people who havee been abused by religion.. people who know there can't possibly be a god because how many people that are killed by religious zealots of every religion state and country and international front on the block. religion kills 4 no good reason
Number 1 to learn at school .. start early
Does skin picking count as compulsions? Because I do have ocd but it’s not mainly the common ones like germs or sexual thoughts. My skin picking is so intensive that I can’t control it even it I was bleeding.
I do have it. Medication has changed my life. So did therapy but the medication really made the difference
I know some therapists who frequently validate pretty much anything people say, I always feel "handled" it's an obvious technique and it makes them so much harder to trust or relate to
Even my mom tried to admire my illness but sometime she still unintentionally hurt me by "so hard to live with you". I know she doesnt mean it. Even my best friends, for sure they can not understand it, i remember in the past she told me that im so picky and live like a princess with high standard. I i stop hangout with her for a year. Luckily that we came back lol. They never know how our life truely are. We're not proud for being an OCD. We dont like to be "that clean, that perfectionist,..etc". We doubt about our memories and exhausted. Swear the fee of paying for using water monthly is triple time to compare to normal people..
Comment section calms me down
Why i have feeling like my body is moving when I'm not
I'm having panic attack right now
The doubt OCD creates 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
❤ Thanks a lot, Dr. Ali! This really helps! I immediately started, feel much better! Will do more and more of it. Warm greetings from germany! ❤
Brilliant.I have so many questions.
As someome with OCD you just explained my entire life
I have OCD and I just want to make it very clear I do not ENJOY or LIKE doing these actions. It's like a voice in my head telling me I have to do these acts (and that's only part of it) or I will get punished somehow
Sadly, I've not been very impressed with the listening skills of the few therapists I've known.
@klanderkal it’s never to late just like Tom Brady he retired and changed his mind go back to work!!🎉
1:24 Roger that, Carl!
My biggest Fear: Failure Failure: turns into clumsiness Clumsiness: turns into insecurities Insecurties: turns into humiliation Humiliation: turns into bullying Bullying: turns into social anxiety. Thank you.
I’m truly at peace by myself I have been this way my whole life and told that it’s abnormal to not enjoy socializing with people. What if your just at peace with it and just simply don’t care for friendships a part of it yeah people can be cruel but others can be so nice and I simply find all interactions just exhausting
My counselor (therapist) doesn't seem to care ,it's a job ,employment, so to speak. Doesn't let me finish the questions he asks. I feel like a piece of me dies every time after seeing him. Thank God for my psychiatrist.
You need another therapist 😮
That's my question. Is it possible for you to get a different therapist? You're worth it.
@aceofspace99 thank you for saying that's because after talking to him, I don't feel worth.
How do I navigate being blamed for someone’s reaction while listening to them?
Jump to 1:22 to hear the skills without ado. 1:22 Reflect 3:08 Ask ‘What is this like for you?’ 5:24 Validate 8:04 Understand ambivalence
I am currently speaking with my therapist about exposure therapy so I can overcome my fear of roaches, it’s taking over my life and I would like to have my comfortability back
You got Hank Green energy.
هههههههههههههه الاعتياد عليه؟ هههههههههههههههه 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So... This is why the lgbtq are this way now?
Psychologists either know only the obvious, or greatly exaggerate and don't humbly know they don't know sh**, despite their profession presenting this authoritative figure. but once in a while or some of them go pull out some Insightful connections to the human mind and life. but yeah the fact people think psychologists analyze because some of them put this aura of being Know it all with theories .
these are mostly just validation, 1 and 3. also asking How they feel is good, but not needing to "Make you" feel.... that's poorly and not carefully worded. Teaching emotional awareness and intelligence is crucial.
This is non violent communication (NVC). All medical and mental Health professionals should study non violent communication. Everyone should read Marshall Rosenbergs books and take live courses to practice these skills.
Listening to this in 2024. Hearing the future goals for 2020. Wow. Who could have guessed.🫶
Weham ..
My rabbit died yesterday and ive known her sjnce as long as i can remember and poeple say its just a bunny get over it but when they say that it makes me angry and i couldnt sleep at all last night i havent been happy since sunday i really miss her
My tics are caused by misophonia my misophonia spread to all of my senses besides pain and smell, typing this is horrible on a touchscreen it is only this bad when im around my parents, every single noise i can possibly hear triggers it, if the creators of this video see this please tell me what causes this, also when at school my autism / aspergers, adhd, misophonia, and tics do not affect me at all i can socialize like a normal person, my tics affect how i talk i sound very slurred and gravely, i also cant say words properly because i remove letters like p, and my tics are moose noises and a crackling noise, sometimes my tics can be physical to the point all of my limbs move beside my head, please tell me what causes my tics to be this powerful and why my misophonia can be able too give me new disorders and tics, please creators of this video and help me figure this out.
As a aspiring professional therapist, I find difficult to understand the difference between your suggestion “what it is like to you” and the stereotypical “how does it make you feel “. Even after the video Can you explain? Maybe with some examples, please?
I am not a therapist, nonetheless, I found this video to be interesting, helpful, and detailed. Thank you.
So I looked in the comments and I never thought anyone else had tics and I got on medication but it never works and my mon always yells at me for saying that
This is what is happening to me too and it's very hard
Tech cant solve ANYTHING sorry. Onlly human to human.
I don't know if I have ocd but the thought of touching anything that might be contaminated and not immediately washing my hands after nearly made me sick.
hi
When you ask the person, "How does it make you feel?" and their answer is ..."I don't know?..." They never know. Can't talk about it. They only know 2 emotions: happy or angry. Is there a way to reach inside of them?
Love your voice bedside manner
I wish my therapist would do any of these instead of interrupting me with suggestions of what I apparently have issues with or what I should do to change myself .-.
I have Symptoms of BPD, and I've been suffering from it for more than 15 years. It's not a joke TBH, any mental health problems.
