What if psychology needs therapy too?
Just like any good physician knows you can't help apatient without first figuring out what's really causing the symptoms, modern psychology desperately needs its own careful check-up —because let's face it, if the mental health crisis keeps getting worse, we're clearly missing something big. But here's the kicker: diagnosis alone won't solve the problem. Like any solid treatment plan, we also need a cure.

Modern psychology has achieved remarkable empirical advances, mapping neural circuits, decoding behaviors, and developing therapies grounded in cognitive and behavioral science. Yet, as many reflective scholars have noted, something essential seems missing…
In Plain Sight, But Deliberately Ignored
Modern psychology, despite its remarkable empirical achievements, has suffered a profound philosophical amnesia: it has systematically marginalized or outright rejected the soul, the very concept from which its name is derived, as it was once defined…
The Troubling Foundations of Psychology
Modern psychology, as we know it, is built on the triumphs of empirical research: experiments, measurements, brain scans, and behavioral analyses. But beneath this scientific surface lies a deeper philosophical tension that has troubled thinkers for decades…
