Take control of your own well-being with this proven seven-step approach to managing your emotions and overcoming anxiety and depression, from a Christian psychologist.
Linda J. Solie, a psychologist who has been in private practice for more than 20 years, says everyone can benefit from taking charge of their emotional health. She gives readers the skills to take control of their thoughts and behaviours by first identifying the problem thinking that creates painful feelings and undesirable conduct. Then using a seven-step process, she helps them change their feelings and behaviour. Throughout the book the seven steps are applied to a variety of situations, both short term, such as a distressing mood, and longer term, including significant long-standing emotional pain. Grounded in faith, the reader's relationship with Jesus is always central to the process. As William Backus pioneered a generation ago with Telling Yourself the Truth (more than 700,000 sold), Solie will reach thousands of readers who don't have easy access to mental health providers or can't afford them. Pastors and lay counsellors will also find this an excellent resource to use and recommend.
