There are those schools of religious psychotherapy. Personally, I think it can be used as a complementary method after the patient has seen a real psychiatrist. It’s not one or the other. Otherwise it’s self-harm.
People like Scott Peck and Wayne Dyer are more like people who specialize in self-help book with many new spiritually oriented ideas. These are all very interesting approaches. But again, they will add-up to more conventional treatments if the patient happens to be interested in the subject.
Scott Peck’s ideas on exorcism are not that different from these approaches. He describes it as a from of brainwashing that will ultimately push that “thing” out of your system and allow you to improve your quality of life.
Personally, I am not entirely hostile to such alternate approaches because I gave up smoking with the BRT method. Many people are sceptic on these approaches that are based on something called bio-energy. Most people won’t even give it try and invest money on that. But I am still a smoke-free person since almost 10 years now.
So on some issues (like true acts of exorcism) I sort of try to remain cautiously sceptic while still exploring the possibility for it to be real on some level.
