Deseret News published a perspective piece warning readers about therapists who may undermine religious faith, offering seven warning signs members should watch for when seeking mental health treatment. The article comes amid broader conservative discourse questioning secular therapy's compatibility with religious belief.

The piece advises members on how to identify counselors who respect faith commitments versus those the author characterizes as actively working against religious values. Critics note the article reflects growing tension between mental health practice and institutional religious authority.

This is the second Deseret News article in recent weeks raising concerns about therapy's effects on faith, with the previous piece questioning whether Americans are over-relying on professional counseling.
