Psychotherapy, as a formal practice of healing the mind, has evolved remarkably since its origins in the late 19th century. Its roots trace back to Sigmund Freud in the 1890s, who introduced psychoanalysis, a revolutionary approach that explored unconscious motives and early childhood experiences. Building on Freud's foundation, figures like Carl Jung, who emphasised archetypes and the collective unconscious, and Alfred Adler, who focused on individual purpose and social interest, expanded the field in the early 20th century. By the 1950s, Carl Rogers pioneered humanistic therapy, championing empathy and unconditional positive regard, while Aaron Beck and Albert Ellis laid the groundwork for cognitive therapies that reshaped how individuals confront negative thought patterns. Over the decades, psychotherapy has grown into a diverse, evidence-based discipline, incorporating cognitive-behavioural, psychodynamic, existential, and integrative approaches. Its impact is profound: helping individuals find clarity, healing, and meaning in their lives while promoting healthier families, communities, and workplaces. In a world increasingly aware of mental health's central role, psychotherapy stands as a vital force for both personal transformation and collective wellbeing. For that force to be most fully and effectively expressed, there must be a living and active relationship with God. Carl Jung observed that of all the patients he treated in the second half of his life, there were none that were fully healed without coming into a personal relationship with God. The impact of faith in Christ goes further than the reach of any human therapy, resulting in the regeneration of the human spirit, and the begining of a path of deification, should the disciple choose to daily walk and talk with Him. The tools of Christian psychotherapy, used under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, are powerful chanels of the grace that comes form God alone.
