Abstract

This paper will utilize a broad-based paradigm for the appropriation of a general counseling identity, and adapt its use for pastoral counseling supervision. In her article, "A New Paradigm for Teaching Counseling Theory and Practice," Sharon E. Cheston proposes a template which is ideally suited for a wide-range of application in counseling sub-specialties. It provides  a standardized way of transmitting the esential nature and constitutive elements of counseling in general, while respecting the unique contributions and aims of pastoral counseling in particular.
