Reading your post reminds me of a story of one minister who got depressed and was unable to help the members of the church suffering the same depression. It's good that a group of biblical counselors from Overseas Instruction in Counseling held a seminar in their place. He was invited to attend. While listening to the speakers, the minister came to a realization and later made a public confession that he was not setting a good example to his flock. What happened then was a long story. That was actually the background of why a counseling program was introduced to our school. That happened before the pandemic. I was happy to see one clinical counselor, a psychology graduate student, and even a lawyer who enrolled in this program believing that the current approach in their profession to solve people's problems isn't working. They see a need for real and long-term change from those who suffer from such chronic depression. Even the CHED in CALABARZON acknowledged that there is really a need for studies in the field of mental health.
