God and therapy ?
Title: Why You Can Talk To GOD And A Therapist
Faith & Religion is one of the biggest reasons for stigmatizing therapy and mental health.
Often times, seeing a therapist is regarded as “lacking faith”, “not trusting God”, “not being spiritual enough”, etc. Other times, we’re quick to saddle our spiritualists with the responsibility of our therapists.
Sitting with Tola Oladiji, a spiritual authority, life coach, and therapist, this episode examines why seeing a therapist is an act of faith. It’s okay to talk to God and have a therapist.
If you’d see a doctor for physical sickness, why not for your mental health?
Disclaimer: “God” is inclusive of the Supreme being for every religion form
