I think what GP might be saying is that there is some risk associated with therapy (e.g. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/insight-therapy/2020... —- not sure if it’s a good source but you can find plenty more with a search) and, if today we push therapy widely even for relatively minor issues, in those cases that would have fixed themselves with time it’s possible to get a negative outcome.
But, that gets the order reversed. People seek mental health treatment after they already have a problem, not before.
It's much more likely that widespread effects are the cause: pollution, social media, poverty, capitalism, racism, etc.
