Episode 32.
William brings heart, head and soul together in his work as a pastoral therapist. The combination means being attuned to the spiritual values, history and trauma, along with where therapeutic techniques should be used. While he is Christian and works mostly with other Christians, he is open to helping anyone.
Highlights:
· We have more in common than we think.
· Praying together as a couple is a part of your communication.
· Listen to understand not to respond.
· LEARN: Listen, Empathize, Act, Resist, and Never quit.
· Conflicting views of the Bible and how to live those precepts create challenges to be sorted out in pastoral therapy.
· Understanding the pain, trauma and source of a value are important steps in therapy.
Quotes:
“With my theological training, I can also listen to your story of faith and see how we can blend that in therapeutically to help you or to help bring healing.”
“Whatever it is, a lot of times there's pain that drives us. And so one of the things I like to say about therapeutic work is helping people understand the pain that's going on with them.”
“How do we treat people who are different from us, whatever that difference may be?”
“A lot of my work is also helping people be intentional about their decisions.”
“I believe that God designed us with a choice.”
“Some of the work I have sometimes is helping people to calm their triggers down, some so they can listen clearly and listen to understand.”
