The Christian Counselor's Manual is a companion and sequel to Dr. Jay Adams' influential Competent to Counsel, which first laid out a vision of "nouthetic" counseling—a strictly biblical approach to behavioral counseling and therapy.

This practical guide takes the approach of nouthetic counseling introduced in the earlier volume and applies it to a wide range of issues, topics, and techniques in counseling, including:

Who is qualified to be a counselor?
How can counselees change?
How does the Holy Spirit work?
What role does hope play in therapy?
What is the function of language in a counseling session?
How do we ask the right questions?
What often lies behind depression?
How do we deal with anger?
What is schizophrenia?

These and hundreds more questions are answered and explained from a biblical perspective in this comprehensive resource for the Christian counselor.

A full set of indexes, a detailed table of contents, and a full complement of diagrams and forms make this an outstanding reference book for and Christian counselor.

Accompanying charts, appendixes, and reference material are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.
