Faith, Psychology, and the Human Person: A Catholic Response to the Mental Health Crisis

Mental health challenges are rising rapidly among young people. How should Catholics respond? In Episode 48 of the Cardinal Newman Society Podcast, host Kevin Murphy continues his conversation with Fr. Charles Sikorsky, President of Divine Mercy University. Together, they explore how sound psychology, grounded in a faithful Catholic understanding of the human person, offers a hopeful and effective response to today’s mental health crisis. Fr. Sikorsky discusses the growing need for well-formed Catholic mental health professionals and the role of faithful education in restoring healing, dignity, and hope.
