- Why does two people talking in a room together make such a huge impact on people's mental health?
Here's what really matters in therapy, and what to look for in a therapist.

I loved this straight forward explanation. It also reminds me of the approach I am trying to take with my 17 year old daughter. I can see the great benefit of this approach with her over my worn out and limited old habits of advising and cheering up.
That's a lovely reflection Jo.
I love this explanation, Forrest. Therapy is a mysterious thing! I may refer my clients to this video to 'initiate' them to the therapy process.
Thank you Sally!
This is wonderful! Exactly " the therapist isn't overwhelmed by your feelings". This helped me know/see that my feelings weren't TOO BIG and that they were survivable. Perhaps this is why sponsorship in ACA and other recovery programs work as most sponsors in addiction recovery are "lay" listeners,. Of course, this is with a limited scope; focused on the steps and listening with empathy (most of the time. There are awful sponsors out there.) If we stay in our lane and refer to other professionals it can be effective.
Turn to bible and allow CHRIST to be your therapist, psychologist and psychiatrist. No man nor women fits to be one. All are sinners and without glory, all are tempted and suffer the same.
All are expected to REPENT AND BORN AGAIN, to LIVE HOLY AND GO AND SIN NO MORE.
All are weak in the daily fight between their spirit and flesh.
All these therapist, psychologist and psychiatrist, this world provides, can do is:
to deceive and steal.
They deceived you through all these “diagnoses” and they steal your money, through all the pills which you “need”.
In short: they poison your mind and your overall health, leaving you with neither one.
Therapist, Psychologist and Psychiatrist = Field where no human soul, never ever going to fit of being an help, no matter the among of years spend in “medical schools” or the decree gotten from there.
ALL of us are daily deceived, no matter the walks of life.
A lucid explanation of what actually works in building a therapeutic relationship. I want to link this to my therapy website.
You're welcome to :D
Forrest, I would very much like to see you and your dad discuss the unique therapy needs of people who have caused an accidental death. There are no resources for these people. Every 18 minutes a person is accidentally killed. The shame and guilt are paralyzing. This should be a specialty in counseling. Over 180k people a year accidentally cause the death of a person. Please shine a potlight on this devastating issue. Thanks.
This was a great breakdown being heard is so important!!
I tried numerous types of therapy and antidepressants, however to date each every one has been a complete waste of time and money. If they work for you be grateful because they don't work to me.
That’s very sad😢
Are you being honest with your therapist? Fully 100% honest. If not itll never work
I would strongly suggest you meditation and worship Divine Ma Tara( mother nature)
Try psychedelics
Wonderful video
Think that the hard part of believing that the therapist is willing to sit there and make a bond is that you still pay them. They are your "friend" while you pay them.
My experience was the opposite of this. I had one that would just gaslight me every time I’d talk about how I didn’t like it when someone would yell at me or the kids. “You’re too sensitive”. Instead of giving help on how to get the other person to not freak out over every little thing. Then when I called the therapist on it, she acted like she didn’t know what gaslighting was (and she told me the next session, “sometimes we play dumb… I know what gaslighting is”. It was appalling.
I’m sure you could put that to scale, such as the more both like each other the better the outcome. I could also see a situation where someone talks themselves in circles for a very long time
My last therapist commented that I didn't trust them...I had to agree. The only people in my life I trust I've know for well in excess of 10 years. Therefore any therapist is already at a disadvantage of they think they have any chance of me dropping my guard and trusting them...it's simply not going to happen
You act like the therapist is begging to know all about your baggage. The fact is you are only hurting yourself. They aren't there to be your bff, they are there to let you get shit off your chest. You act like they're interviewing you for husband material. You are your own worst enemy dude
In Porphyry's Life of Plotinus, we learn that the mystic Plotinus refused to discuss his life or reflect upon it. He focused on transcendent truths instead. Plotinus found peace by doing the polar opposite of psychotherapy.
Isn't therapy just "Your problems aren't even that bad. Quit whining." in a fancy hat?
Er, no. If anything it's more common for a therapist to say some version of "It sounds like this thing you've been minimizing is a huge deal, maybe it's time to actually do something about it."
Yup… they are professional gaslighters.
You are 100% correct. I have been severely abused all my life by both of my parents. I was depressed to a point, I was having trouble just existing (and I still am looking for ways to die naturally because I just don’t want to live because living is too painful). I have been going to therapy for 10+ years, and the only thing these therapist did was gaslight me and say that just pretend and imagine that these negative things don’t/didn’t happen to you. Just gaslight yourself and pretend nothing bad ever happened to you.
Mental health treatment does not work. I’ve never been to a therapist and felt heard or understood or cared for. Nor have any of the therapy modalities made any sense to me
It’s. Bc therapy is there to support women and trash men.

The overwhelming majority of studies have found that psychotherapy helps people. 😂 Who is funding these studies?
Thank you!!!!!
Listen to J Kristnamurti if you want to understand the workings of our limited mind which in fact is at the core of all fear and suffering. If you want to understand and make use of pyschology (it has it's place) you'll need to research J Kristnamurti's teachings. His words of wisdom alone are your healing/therapy.This is so because you'll be having a conversation with yourselve using his insights, you will come to know yourself finally, therefore all of mankind an perceive that new reality, that you are one with everything and not fragmented, separated or alone. You will become a better psychologist. Think of it, how can our mind which is disordered due to it's content (conditioned cruel/brutel world we were born into, yes), how can that same disordered content bring about any change for the better? It never has, right? And never will. My 2 cents
I'm changing my psychotherapist, he is very rude, judgy, implying me that I'm wrong. My problems are fake 😢.
🙏🔥💚
It does not.
Andrew Tate mockingly argues the dilemma with therapy
This guy looks like he needs a therapist
Do you think that is a clever attempt to insult? What if he did, most of us do.
