AVAILABLE 1.7.2025
From mental health advocate Tabitha Yates, Jesus and Therapy is a deeply powerful and essential exploration of mental health within the Christian community. More than just an examination—this book is a heartfelt invitation to begin crucial conversations in the church and offer hope to those who feel isolated and misunderstood.
Tabitha Yates knows firsthand the shadows that mental health struggles can cast, especially within a church setting. During a particularly dark period of her life, she found that the sanctuary she hoped would provide refuge often deepened her pain, leaving her feeling abandoned and unseen. Her own journey through depression, anxiety, and a suicide attempt has uniquely equipped her to understand and assist others who find themselves in similar situations, as well as to guide church leaders in providing meaningful support to their struggling members. Now, Yates works as a mental health advocate to combat common myths surrounding mental health and encourage unifying, healing dialogue within the Christian community.
In Jesus and Therapy: Bridging the Gap Between Faith and Mental Health, Yates combines insights from psychology, personal experience, and Scripture to offer practical steps for confronting and healing trauma. This book is a beacon for those who feel lost in their faith while grappling with mental health challenges. It provides pastors and faith leaders with the tools to approach these struggles with empathy and understanding, while additionally serving as a valuable resource for mental health professionals.
Jesus and Therapy will help readers:
- Learn how to address and counter the misconceptions that surround Christian experiences of anxiety and depression
- Find ways to address trauma and recover from the wounds inflicted by others within the faith community
- Establish healthy boundaries and navigate relationships with fellow believers
- Acknowledge that mental illness, like physical ailments, can not always be solved with faith alone
- Discover how individuals battling mental health challenges play a crucial role in the body of Christ
- Reconnect with a God who loves and accepts you unconditionally.
Vulnerable and candid, Jesus and Therapy ignites a necessary dialogue between the faith and mental health communities, guiding readers toward healing, understanding, and a deeper, more loving relationship with God
