Dangerous Wishcraft: Religion and Mental Health exposes how religious beliefs can affect our mental health, particularly when we rely on prayer or faith, rather than taking concrete steps to solve life's problems. The author is a licensed mental health counselor who has years of experience working with people who have drug abuse and mental health issues. She explains how rigid religious thinking can make it hard for people to make clear decisions or understand cause and effect. This book challenges the idea that faith alone is enough to heal deep struggles. It warns that unchecked religious thinking can lead to guilt, shame, and may even prevent recovery. It includes information on drug recovery, child abuse, health issues, and even environmental protection. Finally, it discusses important world issues and hot-button topics in modern America.
