The Integrative Mindset: Pathways to Practicing as a Christian Clinician

by Brad D. Strawn, Earl D. Bland

Discover the profound impact of integrating faith and psychology with The Integrative Mindset. Guided by the wisdom of veteran integrative clinicians Brad Strawn and Earl Bland, readers will learn how to cultivate an integrative mindset that harmonizes personal experiences and innate talents with therapeutic practice. Using their combined 60+ years of combined experience, Strawn, and Bland, present a compelling emergent model that celebrates the unique and dynamic complexity of each therapist-client relationship. Through the exploration of five key domains—hermeneutics, tradition, ethics, development, and resiliency—The Integrative Mindset offers a rich tapestry of case studies and reflective questions designed to spark introspection and dialogue.

By weaving together the threads of faith and psychology, The Integrative Mindset challenges mental health practitioners to rethink conventional approaches and embrace a more holistic, nuanced practice.
