Intersection of Faith and Therapy – Important Considerations

In this episode, we tackle the complex question: Is incorporating faith into therapy good or bad for mental health? For some, faith is a source of comfort, hope, and healing, while others may find that certain religious beliefs create barriers to emotional and psychological well-being. We’ll explore both the potential benefits and drawbacks of using faith in therapy, examining how spiritual practices can either support or hinder mental health treatment. Can faith-based therapy be a positive tool for growth, or does it sometimes conflict with professional psychological care? Join us as we dive into the debate and discuss the pros and cons of merging faith with therapy.
