Editors Walker, Courtois, and Aten present students, academics, researchers, and professionals working in the field with a collection of academic papers and essays that provide a comprehensive examination of the potential inherent in faith-based approaches to psychotherapy. The essays in the text collectively argue that trauma work is inherently spiritual and that effective therapy must include a focus on the client’s beliefs as they have been impacted. The twelve selections that make up the bulk of the book are focused specifically on relational forms of trauma. Jamie D. Aten is a faculty member of Wheaton College, Illinois. Christine A. Courtois is a psychologist in private practice. Donald F. Walker is a faculty member of Regent University, Virginia. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
