I have Already read and studied many religions, even taken a few uni courses about comparative religion and critical analysis of religion, as well as anthropology of religion. Intellectual study isn't helpful for my personal spirituality at all.
Naturally, I have read some sacred texts and prayed.
I need something or someone like a NEUTRAL "spiritual therapy".
It's terrible that we are not allowed to discuss anything on this forum :-((( can anyone help me and recommend something that would help me?

Thank you for presenting this as a proposition of something that exists. The idea of "neutral spirituality" does exists. I believe it to be an internal understanding. Having sought guidance through spirituality in different places, I have found most teachings to be one-sided and/or bias. Although, all have inspired thought through different modes of gaining and circulating energy, they often are most interested in converting to a singular way of thinking.
-My belief is that Intellectual and Spiritual gain may happen concurrently, and also may evolve within any individual over time. There are parameters to what extent I can understand my own beliefs, but objectively, I have found my own spirituality within the teaching of others through meditation, prayer, faith, worship, and texts. With focus, concentration and a sense of inner peace, practicing spiritually has become very fulfilling
