Everyday Courage in the Face of Anxiety | Ali Mattu | Talks at Google

Clinical psychologist and YouTuber, Dr. Ali Mattu, discusses how to create a practical understanding of mental health and its impact on daily life, sharing microsteps and actions we can take to address anxiety.

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.

What you are doing is so good. I'm sorry how difficult it is. I am older, I'm not a parent, but I also suffer from anxiety. I know it and I would like to tell you that you made me feel less alone and I feel more sure of my healing by telling us your story of healing.
