I've only read his book on Hatha Yoga, which is excellent. He's a legit guru if that's what you're worried about.

It might be good, but the pics of people doing yoga poses doesn't look reassuring.

I’m looking to get into this for mental health reasons. Have you noticed any improvements in your mental health since you started?

Perennialist actually. There is the right way to do spirituality, and there is the wrong way. If you think you can practice asceticism divorced from the enlightenment aspect, you will either gain nothing or fuck your shit up, especially if it's tantra. You must find a guru to teach and guide you.

If you read the book you will find it is very moderate with its approaches.
It calls for no rituals or puja and the most "tantric" activity is daily chanting of aum.
I agree with you for the most part but don't hate the book unless you've opened it.
