Case Conceptualization: A Biblical Wellness (B-Well) Approach is developed in a stepwise progression for students and counseling practitioners. The book begins by establishing a clear understanding of wellness and then provides an overview of biblical worldview essentials. After offering these two foundations—wellness and biblical perspective—an integrated biblical wellness model is delivered, the Biblical Wellness (B-Well) model. Next, case conceptualization (CC) is addressed. It is here that you will gain an understanding of the CC process and how to use the B-Well model in that process. Finally, the last chapters deliver an application of the B-Well model by specific theory by counseling discipline—school counseling, clinical mental health counseling, addiction counseling, pastoral counseling, marriage and family counseling, and special populations—using theories such as solution-focused, cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy, Adlerian, psychodynamic, family systems, play therapy, and others.
Case Conceptualization: A Biblical Wellness (B-Well) Approach is intended for students, counselors, counselor educators, and other helping professionals who desire to operate from wellness and a Christian worldview when conducting a clinical case conceptualization. This book seeks to offer the student, practitioner, and educator a coherent case conceptualization process by bridging the gap between wellness and a Christian worldview.
