Becoming a Christian Counsellor: A Pathway Towards Excellence in Psychotherapy

By Trevor R Summerlin

The book addresses the conflict between the all-sufficiency of the Word of God and the use of psychological principles. It tackles the challenge of why counselling is often ineffective. It provides a practical model for developing good practice in all forms of counselling and psychotherapy.

The book will be of great interest to all ministers and church leaders, to everyone who is a counsellor or would like to be a counsellor, and to anyone who may be thinking about consulting a counsellor.
