Great Service  Jun 14, 2008
I met and was counseled by the author Dr. Phil Henry during an eight month stay in Florida. He was the interem Pastor at the "First Baptist Church" as the congregation sought out a full time pastor. The people in the church spoke highly of his "Notebook" so I decided to buy it. Dr. Henry's book has many great applications to every day life and his words have changed my life. I would encourage any counseler to use this tool in their every day sessions as it has deeply affected my life. There are exercises and studies that address a variety of "issues" that we all face in our every day life.

A Great Tool and Very Practical.  Jun 9, 2008
This is a great tool to use. It is very easy to use and all of the instructions are clear. All of the different exercises give you a wide variety of choices for every situation. You would be a fool not to at least give it a chance. I guarantee that you will find something in it that you will be able to use. I got a chance to use two of the exercises out of it and they were very productive and helpful, and I'm only in the process of getting my Master's. Dr. Henry and company did a great job on this.
 
Resourceful and Practical for All Aspiring Therapists  Jun 9, 2008
The Christian Therapist's Notebook is an essetial tool to have for anyone who believes that God and therapy can be interrelated. The activities that this book explores allows the client and therapist to discover new ways in which God can be incorporated into difficult experiences and daily matters that people may face. The Christian Therapist's Notebook is articulate and user friendly; it allows communication to flow more freely between the client and the therapist. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking to help others, as it uses God's guidance in a positive and supportive way.
 
Helpful resource   Feb 19, 2008
This is a helpful resource for those beginning in the field and will give new ideas to those who have been working in the field for awhile. Each exercise is introduced and explored thoroughly. These exercises can be used "as is" or as a jumping off point by using your own creativity to tweak them for each unique client. We need more books like this.
 
A MUST HAVE FOR ALL COUNSELORS WHO WANT TO BE EFFECTIVE!!!  Feb 18, 2008
I have been working directly with children and families for over 2 years, and I have utilized many tools in an attempt to provide an effective intervention; however, none of them have been as effective as the worksheets and intervention strategies found in this book. It has helped me to get to a whole new level when working with families. The tools provided in the book WORK, and I have REPEADETLY experienced it first hand. IT IS NOT JUST ANOTHER BOOK OF USELESS ACTIVITIES!!!

The worksheets and homework assignments are not just given; however, a complete explanation of the appropriate utilization of the tool, as well as a case study with the tool is provided. As a graduate student who is in the process of learning how to be a professional and competent counselor, this book greatly assist me in learning how to apply effective counseling techniques in REAL LIFE SCENARIOS!!! Many of the activities in the book can be utilized in both a Christian and Secular setting. This book has NO BOUNDARIES for the multitudes that it can affect.
