Sometimes it's easier to make intimate issues about something bigger than yourself

Hello.

Let me get back here for your help:) I am watching 'Lucifer' TV series and we have the following sentence in the second episode:

Sometimes it's easier to make intimate issues about something bigger than yourself.

What does it mean?
Can 'make' mean 'express' here? I would guess this sentence might mean that it is easier for people to deal with their issues when they imagine that more powerful people/creatures also have similar problems like they do. Especially when it comes to intimate problems.

Context: A psychotherapist says this to Lucifer after he reveals his identity (being the devil) and she thinks this is just a metaphor.

The doctor thinks he has "intimate issues", some psychological problems. Such problems are personal and are within the person. If that person changes
