PRACTICAL THEOLOGY, SPIRITUALITY, and FORMATION
COUNSELING AND PSYCHOTHERAPY A Christian Perspective, 2nd ed. Siang-Yang Tan This comprehensive survey of major approaches to counseling and psychotherapy offers a Christian critique and perspective. The second edition has been substantially revised and updated throughout. It covers therapies and techniques that are increas- ing in use and includes a discussion of lay counseling. The book presents a Christian approach to counseling and psychotherapy that is Christ-centered, biblically based, and Spirit-filled. “With updates to include recent research findings, more contemporary approaches to psychotherapy such as mindfulness and acceptance-based therapies, along with a final section on a Christian approach to counseling and psychotherapy, this text is well-positioned to continue its role as a foundational resource for future generations of Christian counselors.” —DAVID WANG, Biola University; editor, Journal of Psychology and Theology “An already great textbook has been made better! In addition to updated original chapters, the second edition has new chapters on cognitive-behavioral therapies, con- structivist therapies, and integrative therapies, including coverage of narrative and positive psychotherapy. All in all, the comprehensiveness, erudition, and Christian convictions and practices evidenced throughout make this book one of the most impressive examples of integrative scholarship in this or any contemporary discipline.” —ERIC L. JOHNSON, Houston Baptist University “The updates and substantial additional material contained in this second edition make an already excel- lent textbook even better.” —HEATHER DAVEDIUK GINGRICH, Denver Seminary “With decades of wisdom and experience, Tan applies his keen psychological and theological insights to both Western psychology literature and orthodox Christianity to help the reader navigate the twenty-first-century terrain of professional counseling and psychotherapy.” —JOSHUA J. KNABB, California Baptist University; editor, Journal of Psychology and Christianity
