Description

This groundbreaking book, now up to date and expanded, furthers its original, effective, time-saving approach that benefits pastors overtaxed by counseling demands. Dr. Charles Kollar presents a departure in pastoral counseling, showing that counseling needn’t be long-term or depend on psychological manipulation to produce dramatic results. Typically, the solution lies with the counselees themselves. The usage of the tested methods found in Solution-Focused Pastoral Counseling, pastors, except for counselors, will be well equipped to help their counselees discover a solution and put it in motion speedily and productively.SFPC is short-term―in most cases one to five sessions, in which the counselor seeks to create solutions with―not for―the counselee. The focal point is on the opportunity of life without the problem through an understanding of what’s different when the problem does not occur or is less intrusive. The goal is healthy change, sooner fairly than later, by helping the counselee see and work on the solution with God’s activity already present in his or her life.The solution-focused approach does not require the counselor to be a highly trained psychological expert. It requires biblically based sensitivity and common sense. Yet this approach also recognizes its limitations and understands that there are situations in which other professional and/or medical help is required.
