Mangaluru, Jan 14: A book titled ‘Counselling: theories, techniques and practice’, written by Carmelite priest, Dr Praveen D’Souza, director of Emmaus Counselling Centre, Mapusa, Goa was released by Fr Pius James D'Souza, provincial of Karnataka-Goa province on January 13, during the 6 pm novena mass at Infant Jesus Shrine, Bikarnakatte, here.

Archbishop Filipe Neri Ferrao has written a foreword to the book which focuses on major Western as well as Eastern theories of counselling. It also has a spiritual theory of counselling.

The theories answer four questions: What is the view of human nature, what makes the person distressed, how to bring the person from distress to wellness and what techniques to use. The book not only deals with theories but also with the practical application of theories to a case. This book will be useful to laypeople, religious, practicing counsellors and students of counselling psychology.

Fr Praveen D’Souza, who hails from Agrar-Mangaluru, completed his PhD in Counselling Psychology (clinical) at De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines.
