Theology for Psychology and Counseling

This book explores the significance of theology and the Christian faith for the practice of psychology. It introduces undergraduate psychology students to basic theological terminology and concepts and lays out a method for theological reflection that informs the practice of psychology in clinical and research settings. The authors identify, develop, and deepen the key theological doctrines that operate in the background of the practice of psychology and are essential for integration efforts between psychology and theology. They upgrade the biblical and theological content of these integration efforts, focusing on the ways theology deepens psychologists' understanding of their field and their work. Each chapter includes introductory takeaways, questions for reflection and discussion, and resources for further study and reading. Theology for Psychology and Counseling demonstrates how psychology and the Christian faith can be brought together in a mutually enriching lived practice, helping students engage in psychology in a theologically informed way.
