"...I believe that clinical psychology—at least one with a sound philosophical anthropology—is most advantageous."

The article went off the rails at this point. Clinical psychology has helped NO ONE, because its premise on humanity is fatally flawed.

With all due respect, your statement that that clinical psychology has helped NO ONE is absolutely ridiculous.
I get your point about about how flawed clinical psychology is in it’s de-emphasis of the spiritual nature of man.

However, God / Christ based theological immersion does not always adequately address complexity of behavioral problems, personality disorders, abnormal psychology, brain trauma, etc.

Sometimes even the most sincere prayer and faith has poor efficacy.
Should soldiers with war based post-traumatic stress disorder be restricted to only clergy based remedy, prayer efficacy or bust?

Should a childhood rape victim be told to give their trauma to the lord, solely?

Your absolutist statement does align with Scientologists.
