Rezensionen

"The Johnsons have updated and expanded their outstanding Minister's Guide to Psychological Disorders and Treatment to make it an even more timely, relevant, and valuable resource for all members of the clergy. Knowing that ministers are the first individuals sought out for support and assistance when parishioners experience mental health and relationship difficulties, being prepared to serve in this role is of paramount importance. This guide provides ministers with the information needed to thoughtfully and sensitively triage and assist their parishioners as well as knowing how and to whom to make referrals to mental health professionals when needed. In these times of increased stress and trauma, and widely experienced emotional and relationship difficulties, I view this book as essential reading for every minister."

"The Minister's Guide to Psychological Disorders and Treatments, Third Edition, is unequivocally the best book on essential concerns posed by common psychiatric disorders that I've ever read. Authors W. Brad Johnson and William L. Johnson jam-packed their book with wisdom reaching far beyond a typical textbook. Their chapter on ministerial triage is priceless for institutional chaplains and parish clergy. The entire book is extremely practical in addressing, with insight and compassion, what I've witnessed as a professional chaplain for over thirty years. I wish I had this powerful resource in my earlier years as a chaplain. As a faculty member, this book is on the required reading list for every course I teach on chaplaincy. Every chaplain and parish clergy needs a copy. Their words and wisdom are incredibly useful for any minister but utterly indispensable for the practicing chaplain."

"In this 3^rd edition of The Minister's Guide to Psychological Disorders and Treatments, Drs. Brad Johnson and William Johnson have provided an accessible, timely, relevant resource for pastoral counselors that are tasked with guiding their parishioners toward health and healing. As mental health awareness and reduction of stigmatization of mental health concerns advances in faith communities, parishioners complex mental health needs will more readily be revealed in pastoral care encounters. Incorporating the elements of triage and cultural humility in this edition equips pastoral counselors to provide the current best practices in meeting the needs of individuals in a contextually relevant manner and ensures appropriate care giving and professional collaboration as indicated. This text will serve those in pastoral counseling well and will function as an often utilized tool in their pastoral counseling library."
