Synopsis

Discover Research as a Sacred Journey

In counseling and psychology programs, students and educators alike often approach research with feelings of apprehension. Educators and researchers Kristen Kansiewicz and Paul Loosemore offer a different perspective. In Engaging in Counseling Research with Curiosity and Wisdom, they reveal how research is not only an essential element of mental health work but a unique invitation to curiosity, wisdom, and personal growth.

Kansiewicz and Loosemore provide an integrative connection between Christian faith and the process of research. They unpack such topics as:

• how to engage one's whole self as a researcher
• different perspectives on knowledge and truth
• the importance of diversity in research
• applying research insights to the clinical setting

Designed to accompany and enhance the primary curriculum in a research course, Engaging in Counseling Research with Curiosity and Wisdom offers:

• a Christian formation perspective of the research process
• how to look at Scripture through a research lens and research through a biblical lens
• discussion questions and classroom learning activities
• inspirational ideas for teaching research courses
• compliance with CACREP standards

God created us to be explorers, filled with awe as we uncover truths all around. Everyone in the mental health professions can benefit from understanding what good research is and how they can engage their natural curiosity wisely in every phase of their work. Whether you are an educator, student, or professional in psychology, counseling, social work, or a similar profession, this resource empowers you to engage with research in a meaningful and faithful way.
