I witnessed spiritual bypass many times in the context of people becoming "spiritual" as an emotional avoidance strategy. It's even more tragic in my experience because at least traditional religions have very strong and developed frameworks for addressing various types of loss - both individually and as a couple/group.

Modern-day spiritualism is dominated by shallow inspiration masqueraded as profound psychological and medical insight. Courses for "raising vibrational frequency", literal belief in astrology, crystal healing, etc.
