The Healer's Art

Written by a Latter-day Saint clinical psychologist, The Healer's Art weaves scripture, prophetic teaching, and psychological research into a practical guide for emotional and spiritual healing. In three parts—helping ourselves heal, helping others heal, and how Christ heals us—it covers forgiveness, spiritual gifts, ministering, healthy relationships, boundaries, and the Atonement. Each chapter closes with reflection questions and action steps, making it a hands-on companion for anyone carrying wounds and seeking wholeness through the Master Healer.

• A clinical psychologist bridges evidence-based therapy and gospel doctrine—rare credibility for LDS readers wary of pop psychology or of faith-only approaches to mental illness.
• Directly dismantles harmful myths (mental illness is caused by sin, just needs a priesthood blessing) that hurt Latter-day Saint families.
• Functions as a guided workbook with reflection questions and action steps in nearly every chapter.
• Moving real-life testimonies of healing from cancer, divorce, and raising children with disabilities.

“when you meet someone, treat them as if they were in serious trouble, and you will be right more than half the time.”

Perfect for a Latter-day Saint adult carrying emotional, spiritual, or mental-health wounds—or ministering to someone who is—who wants a Christ-centered, psychologically informed path to healing.
