Schools of Thought in Secular Counseling
1. Psychoanalysis (Freud)
  • Based on the stages of the development of man
    (oral, anal, oedipal, and latent), a structure of
    personality (id, ego, and superego), and a
    technique of solving unresolved, unconscious
    conflicts
  • Focus on individual introspection
  • Technique free association
  • Cause of Neurosis inheritance or
    environment no personal responsibility or
    problem of guilt
  • Avoids the problem of morality

    influence on mans development

15
Limitations of Secular Therapies
  • No standard of authority besides mans logic or
    conscience
  • Will power can be insufficient
  • Man is basically selfish, not good
  • Limited to psychological (mind or emotion) no
    spiritual

16
  • Schizophrenia remains one of the most serious
    chronic diseases, attacking 1 to 2 of the
    population. Forty years ago patients suffering
    from schizophrenia occupied half of all the
    mental hospital beds and one-quarter of all
    hospital beds. Today, most of the mental
    hospitals have shut down but they have not
    disappeared. By refusing to accept patients, and
    by discharging them before they are ready for
    independent living, they converted the community
    into the new mental hospitals. About half of the
    homeless people on our streets are
    schizophrenics, many of whom have been treated in
    mental hospitals or psychiatric wards, placed on
    tranquilizers, and then discharged to fend for
    themselves.
  • Patients do not recover. The recovery rate today
    is certainly under 15 which is one-third of the
    recovery rate achieved in 1850 in England and in
    the USA in the Dorothea Lynde Dix hospital in the
    eastern part of the country.

17
  • Wrote Dr. Sarnoff A. Mednick in Psychology Today,
    "We have been working on the problem of
    schizophrenia, however, for more than 100 years,
    and at this point it is fair-in fact necessary-to
    say that we know very little definite about the
    origins of this disease. Zero" (Mednick, "Birth
    Defects and Schizophrenia," Psychology Today,
    April, 1971).

18
  • The National Association for Mental Health
    admits, "We know very little about the causes of
    mental illness, and until we know much more, we
    cannot identify any sure way to prevent mental
    illness."

19
  • God warned 3,400 years ago that if men insisted
    upon breaking His laws and commandments, and
    living their own ways, the result would be
    disastrous. God said if we broke His laws we
    would be smitten with mental illnesses
  • "The Eternal will strike your minds with madness,
    blindness, and dismay, till you grope at noon
    like a blind man in the dark, and fall into
    disaster" (Deut. 2828-29, Moffatt).
  • The original Hebrew word for "madness" in this
    verse is shiggaown and refers to mental insanity,
    craziness -- a raving maniac. Interesting, isn't
    it, that 25 percent of our hospital beds today
    are occupied by victims of schizophrenia?

20
Definition of Christian Counseling
  • The ministry of one individual seeking to help
    another individual recognize, understand and
    solve his own problems in accordance with the
    Word of God.

21
Six Reasons Christian Counseling is Unique
1.The Standard of Authority is the Bible, not
Conscience.
2. There is Dependence upon the Power of the Holy
Spirit, not just Will Power.
3. It Deals with the Whole Person, Going Beyond
the Mind.
4. It is Effective with the Past, Present, and
Future.
5. It is Based on Gods Love
6. It is Universal.
