Consider Therapy Through the Lens of the Gospel to Find True Hope and Healing

As interest in therapy grows, so does its cultural influence. Popular “therapy speak” dominates everyday conversations. Social media influencers tout advice about self-affirmation, toxic relationships, and more. In a hurting world, mental healthcare is crucial. But when therapy methods clash with biblical truth, they can be harmful.

In this book, biblical counselor Beth Claes explains why psychology works best when it’s rooted in the Christian worldview. She examines popular topics within therapy culture, including attachment theory, identity, trauma, and toxic relationships, explaining the limitations of traditional psychology’s humanistic worldview. Claes shares how counsel that’s anchored in Scripture can lead to true wholeness for the body, mind, and soul.
