Have you been battling resistance in your private practice? Are you struggling with low motivation, ruminating thoughts regarding your ability to succeed, or overwhelming anxiety that leaves you paralyzed and unable to move forward? It’s possible that you are experiencing spiritual attack. One thing I’ve learned as a faith-led clinician is that Satan doesn’t like me or the work that I’m doing. That’s a good thing, but it means he’s going to try to stop me. The more effective we become as believers working in the field of mental health, the more of a threat we are to the enemy. We need to be aware of spiritual attack in our practice so we can be on guard against it.

In this episode, I’ll teach you how to recognize spiritual attack and how you can respond effectively so you can outsmart the enemy and move forward as an empowered warrior for the Kingdom of God.
