  • Description

    How do certain medical conditions impact counseling needs? Biblical counselors and pastors often face questions when counselees struggle with overlapping physical, emotional, and spiritual difficulties. Edited by Charles D. Hodges Jr., M.D., this second edition offers updated material and contributions from physicians, healthcare professionals, and biblical counselors to provide biblically grounded principles for counseling those affected by medical issues.

    The first section offers guidance from doctors and healthcare professionals with biblical counseling experience about the extra challenges inherent in particular medical diagnoses. The second section examines counseling considerations for a range of physical and mental conditions, including autoimmune disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, Alzheimer's disease, bipolar disorder, clinical depression, and more, and discusses medications commonly used to treat these conditions.

    Readers will learn the basics of these disorders and how to remind sufferers of gospel truth as they travel a long road. Counselors will also become better equipped to encourage caregivers, family members, and loved ones who are impacted by these diagnoses.
