You can be doing everything "right" and still find yourself struggling in the grips of depression and anxiety. The fact remains that depression and anxiety are indiscriminate when it comes to who will encounter it. How can you get to the spiritual root of what you are facing and experience freedom in the pit of pain?
As a clinical neuropsychologist, Dr. Michelle Bengtson thought she had every tool anyone could ever need when it came to mental health. And yet, when her own story plunged her into the depths of depression and anxiety, she found herself at a loss. Post-partum depression and anxiety left her searching for tools from her tool box that weren't working like she thought they would. It wasn't until the Lord encouraged her to deal with the spiritual root of some of her pain that she finally found a way forward. Because of her own personal experience, she found herself even more equipped to help her patients in their own journey through depression and anxiety as well as countless others through her books and podcast.
In this insightful episode, Davey and Dr. Bengtson talk about how even being an expert doesn't keep you from certain pains, how to address the spiritual roots of depression, and the warning signs and contributing factors that can negatively impact our mental health.
If you are tired of band-aids for depression and anxiety, this conversation will remind you that addressing mental health requires a multifaceted approach and God wants to do a deeper work of healing in your life.
