How do Christians reconcile their faith with the experience of anxiety? Join us for an enlightening conversation with Healey Ikerd, a licensed professional counselor and marriage and family therapist, who shares her journey and passion for integrating biblical principles with psychological techniques. Healey opens up about her motivation behind creating a unique workbook designed to help Christians manage anxiety and worry. We explore why anxiety is so prevalent among believers and discuss the challenges of aligning anxious feelings with biblical teachings. Haley emphasizes the importance of viewing anxiety as a God-given emotion and shares how her faith has guided her throughout her mental health career.
In this episode, Healey walks us through her comprehensive workbook, which addresses anxiety from multiple angles. From goal setting and understanding brain functions to the importance of physical health through sleep and nutrition, Healey offers practical tools and techniques for overcoming negative thoughts and managing panic attacks. The workbook also integrates spiritual aspects, reinforcing one's identity in Christ and providing scriptural encouragement. Healey leaves us with an empowering message about God being a source of conviction, not condemnation, and encourages listeners to seek help and trust in Him for peace and calmness.
