Christ-based Counseling (CBC) is the uncompromised, new-generation counseling born out of the Living Word, Jesus Christ. Established upon principles in the Gospel's, Antecedent Commission, CBC is the powerful healing instrument for God's people. Christ-based Counseling reverses the trend toward psycho-socio based therapies under the guise of "Christian" counseling, which has given rise to exclusive dependency on drug-therapy and psychological humanism. Christ-based Counseling paves the way to non-medicinal wholeness. Designed for ministry leaders, pastors, lay counselors, talk-therapy professionals, or as a self-help program, CBC upholds the power and authority of the Living Word. Christ-based Counseling embraces the creator-based perspective of humanity and wholeness versus the psycho-socio models. Classic topics are discussed from a Christ-based Counseling perspective: Motivation, Environment and Heredity, Dealing with Hard-core Cases, Transformation vs. Behavior Modification and much more. Developed from the life of Christ, now the believer can become the certified care-giving minister with a systematic, well designed, and documented counseling approach. The guide includes complete CBC approaches for Marital/Pre-Marital, Addiction, and Depression counseling. The certification process is at christbasedcounseling.org
