Catholic psychologist Dr. Gregory Bottaro joins A Reason for Hope Podcast to explore why much of secular mental health care is falling short and how integrating faith and psychology offers a more complete path to healing. He shares his journey of discerning a religious vocation with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, his mentorship under Fr. Benedict Groeschel, and the deep spiritual wisdom behind Abandonment to Divine Providence. We discuss how faith can transform psychological practices, the impact of sin on mental health, and how the CatholicPsych Institute’s Mentorship model, launched just before the pandemic, is reshaping the landscape of Catholic therapy. Dr. Bottaro also explains the unique approach of Catholic Mindfulness compared to Eastern practices, highlights the saints who have inspired his work, and gives a preview of the upcoming CatholicPsych Institute Summit.
