"Psychology is no safer than anything else. If you don't trust it, if you don't have faith, if you don't have confidence that it will help you, then it's no better than voodoo"
That's not true, that is, your statement is too general. There are treatments that are helpful and have been shown to be helpful in academic study, and there are treatments that are quackery no matter how much "faith" you might have in them. You can't help a paranoid schizophrenic in any clinically meaningful way with "get rolled in a rug" therapy, no matter how much "faith" abounds. Some guy died that way.
