10 Steps to Lasting Healing: True Psychology—for Catholics

by L K Miller

For far too long, prevailing messages have been that relapse is inevitable, that harmful emotional suffering can at best be medication managed, and that permanent healing for psychological disorders is impossible. L K Miller refused to accept this—and after years of searching in worldly solutions and finding no relief for her own emotional suffering, addictions, and other psychological disorders, she turned to Christ and discovered the only path to true and lasting healing: repentance and living fully in His Truth, Love, and Virtues.

In 10 Steps to Lasting Healing: True Psychology—for Catholics, L K Miller shares the fruit of over two decades of prayer, professional practice, and her personal journey, offering readers the same steps that led to her freedom and have transformed numerous lives. This book presents the philosophy of True Psychology and methodology 10 Steps to Lasting Healing—a Christ-centered approach that goes beyond symptom management to address the real root of harmful emotions and wounds, addictions, disordered attachments, trauma, psychological disorders, and sexuality and identity confusion, offering authentic and lasting healing.

With warmth, honesty, zeal, and practical wisdom, L K Miller offers hope to those who have suffered enough and are ready for lasting change as she shares both her personal testimony and the ten steps that led to her achieving peace, contentment, fulfillment, and lasting healing. 10 Steps to Lasting Healing: True Psychology—for Catholics offers a practical, deeply spiritual proven lifeline for the suffering, hope for loved ones, companion for truth seekers, and guide for those who serve others in ministry, counseling, or spiritual direction.

Because lasting healing is possible. Freedom is possible. And you were made for more.

REVIEW BY FRANCIS ETHEREDGE

Catholic married layman, father of 11, 3 of whom are in heaven,
and an author: https://enroutebooksandmedia.com/francisetheredge/

Do we live without reflecting on whether or not God exists? Do we need a heart attack to examine our lives and live more deeply? Or are we drifting and need a conversation to lift our hearts to the Lord? Or do we want to go deeper, like the diver that has mastered the shore-line?

And just as a good counsellor is a help to us all, so L K Miller draws consistently on the wisdom of Archbishop Fulton Sheen. If you are not acquainted with his work this book provides, through various quotations, a good starting point for reading more of what he said and a push to finding out more about what he did. He is now called Venerable, as Pope Francis has recognised the validity of a miracle attributed to him. The miracle was of a still-born baby recovering completely after no heartbeat and not breathing for just over an hour. Lara draws, moreover, very fully, on the Scriptures and, in addition, on various people from the Christian Tradition. But whether you draw on Fulton Sheen or others, there is wisdom in ‘many counsellors’, according to the book of Proverbs 15: 22.

On the one hand, L K Miller invites us to consider how we understand the origin of what we feel and think and do. She invites us to reconsider whether we are engaging with the reality of our own reactions or living, as it were, as a victim of what does not originate within us. In addition, this is not a book without personal experience; rather, Miller intermittently and throughout the book admits her own experience of coming to a deeper and deeper healing of her own life of sin. This book, then, is not so much a “read” as a source of pondering and focusing our dialogue with Christ. Be willing to be led to the Sacraments of the Catholic Church, particularly Reconciliation and the Eucharist; and, if you already go, then this book will encourage you to go more frequently. For one of the principal benefits of this book is raising awareness of what our real relationship is to ourselves and to Christ and the many and varied ways that Miller counsels us to seek and obtain healing, where necessary, and as frequently as necessary, whether it is through a prayer dialogue with Christ or the sacraments of His Church.

This rather unusual book is probably good to read in the silence of the Church, when there is simply you and Jesus Christ in the Tabernacle or, if that is not possible, then read it with you ‘in the presence of Christ’ wherever you are. Indeed, there are many questions and sayings in this book which could be read like prompts for a courting, or married couple, to engage in dialogue. In other words, this book helps us to see that our relationship to Jesus Christ and His Church is an ongoing dialogue, and, like all relationships, it benefits from what refreshes it! Thus, this book could also be used along with regular visits to a confessor or spiritual guide. And, practically, while Miller herself has obviously been engaged in dialogue with Jesus for some time it is necessary to adopt the wisdom of St. Francis de Sales and ask, realistically, what is a suitable amount of time for me to spend in beginning this dialogue with the Lord.

Pray and beg God to make this more than a fruitful read! Whether in Lent, Advent or indeed any time of year, especially if we need help to respond more wholeheartedly to the Lord.

TESTIMONIALS

L K Miller belongs to that rare breed of psychology professionals who provide the distinctive advantage of viewing emotional and mental pathologies through a biblically-informed Catholic lens. Psychological disorders are not examined in isolation from spiritual dispositions. Healing comes not through pills prescribed by a psychiatrist, but through a deeper path of guided moral and spiritual self-examination and discernment that brings us face-to-face with sin, selfish habits, repentance, prayer, growth in virtue, and intimacy with Christ that yields psychological understanding, spiritual healing and genuine peace. To anyone looking for a trusted guide, I heartily recommend L K Miller and her work, 10 Steps to Lasting Healing: Truth Psychology—For Catholics.” – Dr. Philip E. Blosser, Professor, Sacred Heart Major Seminary, Detroit, Michigan

“Many books promise lasting healing and peace but fail to deliver. 10 Steps to Lasting Healing: True Psychology—for Catholics by L K Miller has profoundly impacted my own family. Jesus’ first words in the Gospel were, ‘repent,’ reminding us that true healing is inseparable from repentance. This book offers an authentic and reliable guide to healing, deeply rooted in Catholic Tradition and the very words of Christ Himself.” – Patrick O’Hearn, co-author of The Most Powerful Saints in Exorcisms 

“This book, 10 Steps to Lasting Healing: True Psychology—for Catholics, is an invitation to walk your path of healing with God. It is filled with TRUTH —a luminous catechesis offering clear, deep, and meaningful words that allow us to look at life with hope, even in the midst of pain, trauma, and addiction. It overflows with LOVE —because reading it is already a form of prayer that lifts the soul, opens the heart, and prepares us to receive the source of every gift. And it is rich in VIRTUE —through wise counsel, encouraging words from great saints, and resources that are as practical as they are inspiring, born of the clinical and spiritual experience of an author who has walked closely with many souls, attuned to the movements of their hearts. Thank you, L K Miller.” – María Calatrava, Investigadora del Proyecto Infinity: Familia, Amor y Sexualidad, Instituto Cultura y Sociedad (ICS), Universidad de Navarra, Campus Barcelona (IESE)
