DVPM 703 - Crisis, Trauma, and Grief Counseling (3)


This course explores in-depth the psychological and systemic dynamics associated with experiences of crisis, trauma, and grief. Emphasis is placed on the role of the minister in responding to crisis situations, in providing pastoral guidance in times of bereavement and loss, in providing safety in the church for individuals to process past experiences of abuse and trauma, and in serving as a role model for the community as a messenger of truth and grace. This course is oriented toward the practical rather than the theoretical and toward the victim rather than the victimizer. Prereq/Co-req: DVPM 701 .
