Remember when psychologists’ goal was to help people live balanced and ordered lives? Now, it seems, the profession’s highest purpose is to empower and validate people’s deepest desires and sexual urges without having to suffer “stigma” or any adverse judgments from themselves or society.

Psychology...a pseudo-science now firmly in the grip of political operatives.

Psychology always was another word for baloney.

Waiting now for the sexually dysfunctional leaders at the APA to declare faithful loving monogamous heterosexual relationships within the context of marriage to be weird and perverted. It won't be long.

It's the "what's-next" after interest in the gender issues thingy dies down. There's always a what's-next.

As usual, they have it backwards. The best path to mental and societal health is monogamy--sex within marriage to one man/one woman. (I'm assuming that gay marriage never achieves this ideal, but if it does, I include it.)

Psychology... the fake science that keeps on "giving in" to moral relativism.
Remember when loonies were kept in the insane asylums, and the streets were free from nutz? Yeah, then the psych's got together and figured out what the nutz needed was love sweet love, as found on America's city streets. Today we have loonie street people who yesterday would have been getting the help they need within asylums. However, since psychology couldn't "cure" them, they dumped them out on the public streets to become a law enforcement problem.
I remember when homosexuality and trans-sexuality was deemed by psychs' quite properly as a "Psychosis." That was before the Hedonistic Mafia took control of institutions of higher learning, and the reigns of political power to negate all that. This is corrosive and destructive to the nation and will result in weakening the United States to the point of destruction. Don't take my word for it, you can find it for yourself in history books and in the Word of God.

They key point here is to wipe out the 7th Commandment, nothing else.
Leftists HATE Christianity, and they really HATE being told that they can't do something, especially "because it is immoral" or "because it is a sin".

The strangest doctors I have ever seen in my life are shrinks. The last one I saw earlier this year caused me medical issues and he was not all all concerned about. Either I discontinue a med I was taking, it was tapered slowly, but I knw from experience it wold not work. He threatened to drop me as a patient or go find another doctor. That part was the best advice.

It's amazing how hard the world tries to make sin okay. And all along God commands against it, not because it's detrimental to HIM, but because it will ultimately destroy US!
Of course, if people aren't born again, then what else can you expect from them other than outright rebellion against God and all of His goodness (including His desire that we stay away from sin).

When God identified sinful behavior, he wasn't doing it for his own sake, he was doing it for our sake. God was telling us not to behave like this because it would only hurt us in the end. Many supposedly intelligent people are too stupid or too dishonest to figure this out.

It's only a matter of time before they decide that pedophilia is A-OK.

Defining deviancy downward is what liberal psychology is about today: "I'm OK, you're OK."
Liberals know no shame because psychology has become an enabler of Anything Goes.

The only practicing psychologist that I ever knew, wound up in a mental institution himself.

Hence the explosion of sexually transmitted diseases and unwanted pregnancies.

Same playbook; same play: the conviction of sin or shame must be banished - by any means necessary. Back in the 1970's, the APA capitulated to obstreperous gay activists to re-classify homosexuality as 'not a mental disorder.' Now, it's a 'hate' crime not to advocate or facilitate the KGBLT agenda. Start the countdown until a B&B is sued for not letting to a polyamory throuple...
