Many psychologists find ways to hide, suppress or replace emotional trauma in "patients". This is a great err.
By human standard, it is "good" enough, if the "victim" is happy with the end result with the methods, whatever it may be. And the psychiatrist is paid for his/her service.
In the entire life of that presumably healed patient, he/she is not only not immune to the trauma, but has in fact become more vulnerable to it. The only thing "preventing" them from suffering it is the psychologist's prescribed "methods". And should the "methods" fail, I supposed the psychiatrist will start looking for scapegoats instead of admitting to doctoral failure.
Besides biblical remedy in Romans 5:6, 8, 10, where we must admit that we were without strength, sinners and enemies of God,
Jesus has called His children to be wise as serpents. (Mat 10:6)
Peter urged believers to grow in KNOWLEDGE of Jesus Christ (2 Peter 1:5-8, 2 Peter 3:18)
Being a Christian should make one wiser, not dumber. However, I'm sad to see many churches today focus so much on Numbers, Quantity, Numbers, that they treat quality for granted, presuming that God will provide the quality, since they are "saved".
This is why you see many Christians being used, taken advantage of, or close shut from non-believers, not able to shine the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ. Yes, all will face suffering, but those who do well in God's favor know what suffering lies ahead and are prepared for it.
We must face the truth, no hide from it. For the truth shall set us free.
