Abstract:
Examines the compatibility and possibility of communication between pastoral counseling and Rational-Emotive Therapy (RET). Uses a Delphi technique to determine whether a randomly selected group of pastoral counselors (N = 15) believe that the basic principles of RET can be used without surrendering theological tenets foundational to pastoral counseling. Concludes that some RET principles may be applicable for pastoral counseling.
