The information provided in this book is neither complete nor comprehensive. It is not designed to be all encompassing. Although, the contents are directed to the pastoral or Christian counselor, the purpose is to provide help to all counselors­ (from the beginner to the well-seasoned therapist), with helpful but brief thoughts about essential issues that take place between a counselor and counselee. I believe, that whatever truth is uncovered and made applicable to helping others through counseling is available for all to use, regardless of beliefs. May you find this book a usable reference and welcomed compliment to materials you already use and the knowledge you already have.
