Therapy, Jesus, & You: Can I Love Jesus and My Therapist, Too? – Interview with Becky Kopitzke

Episode 23: Therapy, Jesus, & You: Can I Love Jesus and My Therapist, Too? – Interview with Becky Kopitzke

Description: Therapy doesn’t have to be a bad word in Christian circles. In this episode of Authentically Amber, I sit down with my “author mom” and mentor, Becky Kopitzke, to talk about how you can love Jesus and your therapist. Together, we’re debunking myths, breaking down stigma, and showing how mental health and faith can actually strengthen each other. You don’t have to pick one or the other — you can seek support and follow Jesus at the same time.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
✨ Becky’s personal journey of faith and mental health.
✨ Common myths about therapy — and biblical truths that reframe them.
✨ Why therapy and Jesus don’t have to be enemies but can work together for your healing.
✨ Practical ways to seek help without guilt or shame.
✨ Encouragement for anyone who feels “less than” for needing support.

Takeaways:
✨ Loving Jesus and seeing a therapist are not mutually exclusive.
✨ Seeking help doesn’t make you weak — it makes you brave.
✨ Therapy can be a God-given tool to bring healing, growth, and deeper faith.
