Right, though I feel the OP's observation is that while sociology and psychology are both academic disciplines, there doesn't seem to be any equivalent to therapy, but applied at the community level.
It feels like this is something that maybe good priests/churches used to do that accidentally got lost as society became more secular.

Certainly, and I could expound on this point at length, but suffice it to say that the elites of most long-lived world religions have had extensive experience, knowledge and wisdom in so-called "psychology" fields for millennia. In fact, as the State disestablishes religions, something must fill the vacuum, and in fact psych*y are used much in the same way as religion formerly was. Psych*y is in fact a compulsory and State-Established Religion for most of us in the West, particularly in these United States, because of the coercive nature of the clinic and hospital system, the court-ordered treatments, the subsidized "medicine" drugs and practitioners, and so forth. Most of us can tell you, even some atheists know, that psych*y is a shitty poor excuse for a religion, and no substitute for an actual faith practice, and the way the State foists it on us today is basically abuse.
