I've been stuck at that stage of thinking as well, and after many data points that got shunted aside. Currently the most interesting and fun counter point to it I am using is that its not just "mind", but a mind-body issue. There are many ways in which your body function influences and alters mood and perception, and vice-versa. Talk therapy goes the other way too, it has the potential to alter the equation, provided other things are done as well.
