About

Welcome to Psych2Go! We are a grassroot organization with the mission of making psychology, mental health, and self-discovery accessible, relatable, and a little less lonely. The founder initially a psychology student, found that psychology is super useful, but unfortunately wasn't accessible to the public like it is today. Through collaborative effort, him and a bunch of animators, students, made bite-sized, animated videos, to explore topics like anxiety, depression, trauma healing, relationships, emotional intelligence, self-love, communication skills, ADHD, autism, introversion, and more. Our iconic sprout mascot represents growth, resilience, and the hope that—with the right care—we can all thrive. Why subscribe? Because Psych2Go isn’t just a channel.
