In this brief YouTube short, Dr. Ray Catania explains to his clients that the ego is not the true self. He describes the ego as a collection of beliefs, attitudes, and perceptions absorbed from the surrounding environment—both real and imagined—rather than an inherent part of who you are. Because the ego consists of external inputs, it cannot be the core identity. When clients hear this perspective, they experience a moment of relief and a shift in self‑understanding, realizing that their sense of self is not limited to the ego’s constructs.
