CONTEMPLATION AND COUNSELING

This work explores integrating contemplative prayer into counseling practice. The author presents a framework combining science, theology, and Christian contemplative thought to create a dynamic approach to counseling that addresses emotional, cognitive, and behavioral dimensions. The book details eleven interventions including silence and empathy, plus a four-stage change process with biblical examples. Topics covered encompass Christian contemplation versus mindfulness, interpersonal neurobiology, lectio divina and centering prayer benefits, and how contemplative practice develops counselor competencies.
