MAITLAND, FL— Many people move through each day, silently suffering from depression, anxiety and disillusionment because they feel that by admitting it, their faith in the Lord may appear weak in others’ eyes. Within the pages of Terry L. Higgins new book, God’s Psychology ($16.99, paperback, 978-1-61904-389-3), readers will come to understand how to clear away the obstacles that keep individuals stuck in feeling, thinking and behaving in destructive ways. Too often, people repeat the same mistakes over and over because they cannot find a solution for their negative emotions, unloving attitudes and impulsive behaviors. Through biblical truth and psychological insights, Higgins provides readers with the hands-on tools to challenge and replace those faulty emotions and thoughts.
“This book teaches how to truthfully examine self-deception, much like what is done in a therapy session, to transform our distorted and destructive emotions and thoughts,” expresses the author. “The problem is that people fail to recognize how they sabotage their need for love. Countless people sit in church each Sunday and suffer silently because love has failed them. They feel depressed, or anxious, or disillusioned with their life but are afraid to admit it to themselves or others because they believe it’s wrong to feel these emotions – ‘after all, if I love and trust God, I shouldn’t feel like this!’”
Terry L. Higgins holds a Ph.D. in Psychology and a Master’s degree in business administration. She has worked in the mental health profession for the past twenty-five years, providing psychotherapy to adults, couples and children; helping them overcome a wide range of mental, emotional and behavioral problems. Dr. Higgins currently has a private practice in Long Beach, California and has been a public speaker on numerous subjects over the years, including communication and listening skills training.
