Does Going to Therapy Mean You Don’t Trust God? Processing Grief & Faith After Parent Loss

If you’ve ever wondered, Does going to therapy mean I don’t trust God enough?—you’re not alone. Many Christians wrestle with this question, especially when grieving. But is this belief actually biblical?

In this episode, we’re breaking down the misconceptions around faith and therapy, looking at what Scripture really says, and exploring how God often works through people—including therapists—to bring healing. You’ll hear a personal story of how therapy changed my grief journey and why seeking help isn’t a sign of weak faith—it’s an act of surrender.

If you’ve been struggling with grief, questioning whether it’s okay to seek help outside of prayer, or feeling like you have to carry this alone, this episode will bring clarity, encouragement, and hope.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • Why the belief that therapy = lack of faith is actually bad theology
  • How therapy can be an act of surrender and trusting God with your healing
  • Biblical truths about grief, community, and how God uses people to support us
    • Key Takeaways:
    • Struggling with grief doesn’t mean you have weak faith. Even Jesus wept when grieving. (John 11:35)
    • Therapy is a tool, not a replacement for God. God often uses others to bring healing, including trained professionals. (Proverbs 11:14)
    • You are not alone in your grief. Seeking help—whether through therapy, support groups, or mentors—is part of how God provides comfort and wisdom.

      • If this episode resonates with you, take a moment to pray and ask God for guidance on your healing journey. And if you know someone who needs to hear this, share it with them today. 💛
