SOLUTION-BLESSED BRIEF PASTORAL COUNSELING PROJECT

by
Amy Tahran
L22263350

Presented to John Hobbs,
In partial fulfillment of the requirements for
PACO 500 Introduction to Pastoral Counseling

Liberty Theological Seminary
Lynchburg, VA
12 August 2011

ABSTRACT

For this project, I am placing myself in a hypothetical context as a staff pastoral counselor at my home church in Valley City, ND, serving a congregation of approximately 200. I have chosen as my overarching goal for life to serve others in the capacity for which the Lord has gifted me and prepared me to counsel and minister to them. 1 Peter 4:9 tells us that, “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” I believe that serving in a counseling role is my gift, and that it is my calling to use that gift to serve others, and in doing so, to obey God. My counseling approach will be a solution-focused, brief pastoral counseling model influenced greatly by Charles Kollar’s Solution-Focused Pastoral Counseling, David Benner’s Strategic Pastoral Counseling, and Hawkins’ Pastoral Assessment Model and Counseling Scenario. The client I have chosen to serve for this project is Brody, the youngest remaining child in the case study based on the Hallmark movie Crossroads: a Story of Forgiveness. Brody is attending counseling in an attempt to improve his family relationships and to process the recent deaths of his mother and younger sister.

    A parallel circuit has more than one resistor (anything that uses electricity to do work) and gets its name from having multiple (parallel) paths move along. Charges can move through any of several paths. If one of the items in the circuit is broken then no charge will move through the path, but other paths will continue to have charges flow through them. Parallel circuits are found in most household electric wiring. This is done so the light doesn’t stop working just because you turned off the TV for example.…
