Description
Summary:Remediation has only recently begun to gain momentum as a topic of interest in the literature of counselor education and supervision. Even more sparse is literature that addresses gatekeeping and remediation in Christian counseling programs. This paper attempts to present a view of integrated faith and practice in remediation processes based on Scripture, clinical literature, and ethics codes. Such integration includes a recognition of the biblical support for upholding standards of professional practice and engaging in the remediation process. Christian counselor educators are empowered by the Holy Spirit, equipped with the Word of God, and positioned in the family of God to pursue and correct students who are demonstrating problematic behaviors. The article concludes with a biblically-based picture of the remediation process. Scripture gives many examples of remediation, with God himself as the initiator of remediation. Christian counselor educators have an opportunity to reflect the self-sacrificial, pursuing love of God through remediation in Christian counseling programs.
