Okay. I'm not referring to casting out demons, raising people from the dead, etc.etc. I'm referring to His teachings as in the teachings in the Sermon on the Mount and sayings like "the kingdom of God is within you and many other teachings."

I once bought a book called "Jesus the Greatest Psychologist who ever Lived" but I gave it as a gift, I didn't read it.
You may want to check it out.

Many psychologists privately consider religious belief to be form of mental illness. Some of Christ's contemporaries thought that he was out of his mind. I would say that psychology and religion are often hostile to each other. Those with faith consider the atheist doctor to be delusional, and the atheist doctor considers the religious to be delusional. And by religious I don't mean some weak belief in shared energy fields, but rather someone who believes that Christ died and was raised from the dead. This is not to say that there are not psychologists who have faith. They are out there, but I don't think they are in the majority.

Very few. Modern methods include prescription drug therapies, therapies in which the patient is told to think about why they are depressed, behavioral therapies, and simple empowerment of self-esteem. Jesus simply cast out demons, in a manner that was much more long-term (I assume), but that relied upon an old model in which those with such disorders were labeled as less than human, and treated violently in order to re-enact Jesus's banishment. (in other words, it is more forceful).

None. I can't remember when a psychologist ever raised somebody from the dead...
