Bad Therapy: Is Mental Health Culture Making Us Worse? | Ep 8

from Jesus Centered Living Podcast · host Keith Minier, Jeremy Piehler

Is modern therapy culture actually helping—or quietly making things worse?In this episode, we unpack the rise of the mental health industry and ask why anxiety, depression, and emotional fragility continue to increase. From the spread of trauma language to the shift toward “identity in diagnosis,” we explore how therapy culture is reshaping identity, resilience, and even the church.More importantly, we challenge Christians to think biblically about mental health, obedience, and spiritual formation. Are we building resilient followers of Jesus—or drifting toward comfort, validation, and self-focus?If you’ve wrestled with how faith and mental health intersect, this conversation will help you think clearly and respond wisely.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 Intro02:32 What is Bad Therapy?11:08 Why Should Christians Care?22:14 How Is It Making Everything Worse?35:27 The Way Forward47:18 The Big Contrast54:12 Outro
