No. Psychology is designed to help people and society, not to harm it. However in a sense if a person uses psychology to their benefit then it could harm people. Take Hitler for example. He used psychology to manipulate people into destroying an entire race.

I love how people always love to assume human LANGANGE isn't flaw'd. Shoot even Carl Jung wrote a WHOLE book explaining how this is the biggest weakness of psychology and could make physchology do more harm then good. But its also why their is so many different schools. But yes its easy to say its helpful, but science is flaw'd because of its use of the human langange AND becuase people see science in lights and perceptions that are damaging to their own purpose, hence the christians..... it can be damaging and also is an example of why to little knowledge can be damaging, people still believe and take frueds views AS psychology, which is damaging....
