God and Therapy
You can love God AND go to therapy too. In fact, it's biblical. Have you been spiritually gaslighted about going to therapy? Have you been told that you should "Just pray about it?" or that mental health issues are "demonic?" Therapy is not rejection or a replacement of God's power. With the help of therapy you can experience God from a healthier perspective.
"For lack of guidance a nation falls, but victory is won through many advisers." - Proverbs 11:14
