Healing through differentiation: a pastoral care and counseling perspective.
Focuses on the function of healing as central to the cure-of-souls tradition of pastoral care and counseling and describes two prominent but contrary styles of healing in ministry. Proposes an interactional model of pastoral care which integrates the two healing styles of compassion and competence through the principle of differentiation, drawing from the perspective of constructivism as practiced in narrative therapy and the theory of natural systems as applied to the role of the pastor.
