Synopsis

The Joint Commision on the Accreditation of Hospitals now mandates taking spiritual assessments of all patients. Biblical Stories for Psychotherapy and Counseling is devoted to helping therapists employ Biblical spirituality in the actual treatment program.This essential sourcebook organizes the wisdom of the Old Testament into episodes that can shed light on specific psychological issues. From the familiar to the obscure, these stories can help us better understand self-esteem, loyalty and obligations, decision making, temptation, anger, morality, various disorders, family dynamics, support systems, developmental issues, recovery issues, aging, suicidal behavior, and more. This book also provides information drawn from modern clinical research that parallels the Biblical narratives. Each story concludes with a discussion of its clinical implications. For psychotherapists, these Biblical foundation stories can be used as a basis for integrating spirituality into psychotherapy.
