I have been looking through the archives and found an old series of tag blogging David Wayne and I did on counselling- I miss those days of tag blogging with the Jollyblogger! We began by looking at What is Christian Counseling and personality types then Joolyblogger asked about "What about depression?" we were both eager to point out that whilst depression can have biological causes, false expectations can be a major contributory factor. I also spoke of Addiction , the ability to change and the vital need to approach Christian problems in a holistic manner.


Update

Over at Counseling notes is a post by a gracious blogger who has gone to the trouble of listing all our posts on counselling in an organised manner. He also highlighted one of the important divisions between us brits and you Americans- I say counselling and you say counseling!

So here is the counselling series in order of posting-
