The first article I read was "Christian Counseling, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and the Future" by Tim Clinton and Gary Sibcy. This article was about creating ground breaking and biblically based strategies based on observation and experiment instead of theory. It discusses the rising field of interpersonal neurobiology. I enjoyed reading this article because it discussed how psychotherapy relates biblically yet connects one 's mind, the body, the brain (including genetics), the environment, and especially the role of close relationships (Clinton & Sibcy, 2012). This was also helpful breaking down each particular subject: mind, body, brain, ect. American Association of Christian Counselors and Liberty University recognizes this article making it scholarly. The author 's credentials are also listed at the end of the article. "Religiosity, Spirituality, and Trauma Recovery in the Lives of Children and Adolescents" by Thema Bryant-Davis, Monica U. Ellis, Elizabeth Burke-Maynard, Nathan Moon, Pamela A. Counts, and Gera Anderson was the second article. This article explores the effect of spirituality and religion combined with mental health services in children and it gave me a greater understanding as to why there are some many challenges in incorporating religion in counseling. Family Crisis and Trauma is the major interest I have in a specialization in counseling. This research comes out of Pepperdine University.

    Many children are exposed to traumatic events before they even become adults. All around the world they are exposed to child abuse, rape, natural disasters, terrorism, car accidents, and school violence among many others. Studies have shown that these traumatic events, if left untreated, can result in significant psychological problems, such as post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or other anxiety disorders, depression, or a number of other behavioral difficulties (Cohen, Mannarino, Berliner & Deblinger, 2000). These difficulties can become chronic and produce negative effects which could last into adulthood. It is therefore imperative that effective treatment strategies be found to help symptomatic traumatized children in order to minimize these negative effects.…

    Crabb (1977) proposes four distinct integration approaches that seek to uniquely implement various degrees of knowledge from the two most prominent bodies of literature relevant to biblical counseling: The World of God and secular psychology (p.32). The first integration approach, “Separate But Equal”, emphasizes a strong dichotomy between the Word of God and secular psychology (Crabb, 1977, p. 34). In this approach, the Word of God is used primarily for spiritual and theological issues within biblical counseling while secular psychology would be ideal for issues aligning…

    The author, David N. Entwistle and his book Integrative Approaches to Psychology and Christianity (2004), brings about several questions to the reader when you look at psychology and Christianity. When you take two disciplines psychology and theology and define both you can walk away with mixed emotions from both perspectives. Psychology is defined as “the study of the mind and behavior. The discipline embraces all aspects of the human experience — from the functions of the brain to the actions of nations, from child development to care for the aged. In every conceivable setting from scientific research centers to mental health care services, "the understanding of behavior" is the enterprise of psychologists” (American Psychological Association). Theology is defined as the study of nature and God and religious truth (answers.com); the study of religious faith, practice, and experience, especially the study of God and of God’s relation to the world (Merriam-Webster).…

    Bowland, Edmond, and Fallot (2012) study focused on group spiritually focused intervention with women aged 55 and older that experience trauma (i.e sexual assault, domestic violence, abuse) (Bowland, Edmond, and Fallot, 2012). The researchers evaluated how effective a 11 session is a spiritually focused group intervention with the trauma survivors and reducing their depressive symptoms, PTSD, and anxiety (Bowland, Edmond, and Fallot, 2012).

The researcher conducted phone screenings with 129 who were interested in intervention and 50 were ineligible due to no trauma symptoms (Bowland, Edmond, and Fallot, 2012) 44 women were eligible and agreed to the study, but one did not attend group and was able to be reached after the study began (Bowland, Edmond, and Fallot, 2012). After conducting the intervention, Bowland, Edmond, and Fallot found that the intervention was effective, in fact, they saw the participants depressive symptoms, anxiety, and physical symptoms had significantly lowered (Bowland, Edmond, and Fallot, 2012).…

    Entwistle Book Review

    David Entwistle’s (2010) book, Integrative approaches to psychology and Christianity: An introduction to worldview issues, philosophical foundations, and models of integration, opens the reader’s eyes to unexpected possibilities, beginning with the often combative regimes of faith and reason using Tertullian’s symbolism of Athens as the seat of reason and Jerusalem as the seat of faith; which is the basic ongoing battle between science and religion (Entwistle, 2010). What Entwistle addresses is his belief that integration of the disciple of psychology and Christianity is possible, each contributing to the whole allowing effective therapy, where the therapist becomes a type of shepherd that invites the client into the goodness of God and introduces Christ as his savior. Psychology attempts to understand, describe, and diagnose human behavior but Christian theology seeks to understand “what it means to be human” (Entwistle, 2010, p. 3). In the end Entwistle (2010) reoccurring theme throughout the book is that this integration is possible because “all truth is God’s truth” (p. 13). All the reasoning, precise measurements, and descriptives of psychology are possible because of God’s work in creation.…
