In privileging a narrow framework, contemporary psychology has silenced sacred and cross-cultural wisdom traditions that once formed the foundation of mental well-being. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book challenges the culture of Western psychotherapy by asking a deeper question: what has psychology lost along the way? Moving beyond surface calls to \"decolonize\" therapy, it offers a clear-eyed diagnosis of the field's spiritual and metaphysical blind spots. Sotillos offers examples of the power of psychological healing when grounded in the tenets and methodologies of indigenous traditions as well as Abrahamic religions, establishing a wide tent for the spiritually curious. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy reclaiming a pluralistic, sacred understanding of the psyche shared across the world's wisdom traditions, \u003ci\u003ePsyche and the Sacred\u003c\/i\u003e argues for a richer, more humane approach to mental health, one capable of addressing the full depth of what it means to be human. As one reviewer writes, it is \"a thread out of the labyrinth... a path back to wholeness.\"\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSamuel Bendeck Sotillos, PsyD, LMFT, LPCC, CCMHC, NCC, CPRP, CCTP, MHRS, is a practicing psychotherapist in California, who has worked for many years in the field of mental health and social services.
