In this The Blaze article, Allie Beth Stuckey argues that the popular “inner child” concept in modern therapy conflicts with a biblical understanding of human nature and healing.
- Stuckey claims “therapy culture” has become a major influence on Christian women, often promoting self-focused frameworks over Scripture
- The “inner child” idea teaches that adults must reconnect with and heal a wounded younger version of themselves
- She argues this concept is not supported by the Bible, which teaches a unified sinful nature rather than multiple internal selves
- The article traces the origins of the idea to psychological theories from Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung
- Jung’s influence is linked to New Age concepts like the “inner goddess,” which Stuckey warns promotes self-divinization
- Stuckey says these frameworks can subtly shift focus away from God and toward self-healing as the ultimate solution
- She acknowledges childhood trauma is real but insists true healing comes through Christ, not inward spiritual exploration
- The broader warning is that Christians should be cautious about adopting secular therapeutic models that conflict with biblical doctrine
