For Christians engaged in the fields of psychology, psychotherapy and counseling, there is a growing need for evidence to support Christian-accommodative therapies. The essays gathered in this volume mine the relevant research and literature in order to explore the efficacy of evidence-based Christian treatments, practices and principles. Topics covered in the book include: devotional meditation, cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic and process-experiential therapies, couples, marriage and family therapy, and group intervention.
