You keep telling yourself that you’re overreacting. You desperately try to convince yourself that there’s no reason for you to be feeling so anxious, sad, and overwhelmed. But it’s no use. And the constant inner nagging and self-criticism only make things worse. You’re always on edge, prepared for some unseen danger lurking around the corner. You can’t sleep at night, and concentrating is becoming impossible. Every decision you need to make is over-analyzed and second-guessed to the point of complete paralysis. You desperately want to find peace, but nothing you’ve tried has helped. You’re out of ideas, and it feels hopeless.

Life is difficult. Psychotherapy is one way to address life's difficulties. Have you found your AI therapist can take you only so far? AI and apps can be quite useful, but lack the healing magic of human connection. I've always enjoyed working with other therapists, clergy, schools, even pets, and now collaborate with AI. As a professional relationship, psychotherapy is a science and an art. Interpersonal and family dynamics and communication skills can be learned. Experience can be gained. Receptivity, cultural humility and resonance is an art. Psychotherapy must be confidential and collaborative.
