The Pastoral Counseling Treatment Planner 1st Edition

This is a very useful tool in my therapy sessions! It is very detailed and gives great treatment plans for various issues that individuals may face and is trying to work through. Spirituality is important to most of my clients and this book helps tremendously. I also recommended this book to a colleague that was not spiritual but wanted to understand and learn how to help her clients on a spiritual level. This is perfect for pastors, individuals who have a degree in theology, and anyone in the helping field!

I liked the planner because it provided good samples of treatment plans (including formatting) which is very helpful for counseling students or new counselors. However, there were some topics I would have like covered that weren't included; and, it wasn't as Biblically sound in a few treatments as I'd hoped. I'll keep it on my shelf, but I doubt it will be a "go to" guide for me.

Very good help for the pastor that wants counseling to be a true ministry. Simple, organized and adaptable.

This planner is truly a good start in the direction to writing treatment plans.

I am currently using this book to teach pastoral care classes in Venezuela. The basic plans for care are helpful. A Spanish version of this would be even more helpful in my context.

There are not very many planners for Pastors in counseling.This is a good lession planer and very easy to follow. I have been looking for a pastoral planner for some time. I'm glad I found it.

its good for the topics it covers, yet many remain unaddressed

A thoroughly helpful resource for ministry professionals.

While it doesn’t cover all topics it covers many basic issues common in a pastoral counselling setting.
