Digital Logos Edition
Overview
In Introduction to Integrative Counseling, Dr. Dave Wenzel provides students with a comprehensive overview of a counseling technique that combines psychology, science, and physiology with theology, spirituality, and faith. Dr. Wenzel, a teacher and a practicing counselor, begins by looking at the historical phases of integration relative to the development of the fields of psychology and psychiatry, as well as a survey of major integration models. From there, he explores the role Scripture, faith, and spirituality can play in counseling and provides practical guidance on how to bring faith into the counseling session. The course covers foundational concepts such as sin, psychopathology, and the self, and concludes with some specific tips on how to counsel suffering people.
