The Bible encourages us to “reason together” and therapy is a necessity. There is a great benefit for having tools (yes the Bible and prayer), but also tools that a licensed and trained counselor/therapist can teach us to use. There is so much depression/mental illness in this world. We need to seek the help of those trained to understand the brain/mind and how to heal and thrive. God wants us to have an “abundant life”. Hopefully we can get away from Spirituality vs. Christianity and see how it needs to work hand in hand. Not in opposition.
