- Abstract
- The project focuses on what happens in the pastoral counseling setting when both the pastoral counselor and counselee(s) have been abused as children. The author analyzes this therapeutic situation by utilizing the resources of material on child abuse, the resulting pain of being abused as a child, theology, psychotherapy, and the story of Jesus meeting the woman at the well in the Gospel of John 4:7-21. The author determines that a pastoral counselor must address and be in the process of working through his or her past abusive experiences before counseling with counselees who have also been abused as children. The author creatively uses the images of a counseling well, water, houses, and abandoned fireplaces to bring the pain and the journey of recovery alive in this pastoral counseling setting. The author offers guidance and hope for other pastoral counselors who have been abused as children and seek to offer counseling with other persons who have been abused.
