What if faith and therapy weren't supposed to compete? Episode 1 starts that conversation.

For a lot of us, faith and mental health have been treated like two completely separate worlds — we pray over here, and we struggle quietly over there. In this first episode of The Gospel Couch, Dr. Nyshia Johnson Easter, LCSW, asks the question that started it all: what if we didn't have to choose?

Dr. Nyshia unpacks what she means by a "biblical worldview" (and what she doesn't), walks through Elijah's very real mental health crisis in 1 Kings 19, and gets personal about her own season of burnout as a young therapist who thought "keeping it together" meant she was fine. Along the way: why the church and mental health care got separated in the first place, why emotional healing isn't a betrayal of your faith, and why needing help doesn't make you weak — or a bad Christian.

Plus, the first-ever Couch Check: a question to sit with long after the episode ends.
