On a number of cases, a specialist is not available. For example, in Russia it is very uncommon to go to a consultant. We do not have many, and they are basically unbelievers. Therefore, encounters are in great demand, and they really help much. You'll be surprised how much psycho problems are caused by spiritual causes, like unforgiveness, inherited curses, witchcraft, occultism, etc.

You make some good points here
KSA. When one sees schizophrenia in action, it's hard sometimes NOT to believe it is demonic oppression. Our experience with psychiatric specialists is that they can do little more than sample "wonder drugs" which can do little more than "sedate" a wild mind.
I appreciate your views here. Living in America, the medical profession operates under this premise -- all mental health issues are biologically based. Iow, there must be some chemical imbalance, requiring the proper "meds." I am not sure which view is correct, or both of them.
Btw, the LC definitely leans toward the western style medicinal approach. The Pentecostal churches, however, lean toward the spiritual causes which you have enumerated. Their practices of deliverance are compelling to one such as I, having spent decades dismissing such nonsense as hocus-pocus.
