PERSONAL THERAPY

FAITH AND REALIZATION THERAPY

VIEW OF HUMAN NATURE

     Faith and Realization therapy emphasizes that each individual is created by God, The Divine Creator, uniquely, equipped with knowledge, skills, and feelings.  That He created each with a purpose, meaning and freedom, life full of hope and future.

DEVELOPMENT OF MALADAPTIVE BEHAVIOR

     Therapists believed that if we fail to appreciate, understand and realize the reason why God created us, that what is happening to us is with a purpose, whether positive or negative that there is a Divine Creator who is in control of everything, people will be able to perceive life as unfair and meaningless which eventually will result to negativity when it comes to thinking and emotions thus will also result to anxiety, hopelessness and depression.

GOALS OF THE THERAPY

     The goal of the therapist is to help clients to be aware that life is full of meaning and that meaning is to be discovered and realized by each individual because that is what God wants for us.

    To strengthened the faith of each individual is another goal.

FUNCTION OF THE THERAPISTS

     Faith and Realization therapy uses real life situation and experiences of each individual and tries to absorb and realize the purpose of life and our existence.  God’s word is used to strengthen the faith and tries to connect it to their lives and for the client to realize that there are still hope and future despite the imperfections of life.  That if we have also this faith, we can discern the things that are God’s plan for us.

MAJOR METHODS AND TECHNIQUES

     The course of the therapy begins with the client circumstances at that moment.  The therapist duty is to listen and listen.  The therapists then will let the client realized that in every event or circumstances, there’s a lot of possible solutions for that and everyone is capable of solving their own problem especially if they have personal and honest relationship with the Divine Creator.

APPLICATION

     This is very applicable in every situation and aspects of life.  One need to have a closer relationship and faith with God to be able to realize what life is all about.

    As teachers, we must realize that it is God’s plan why we are in the teaching field.  Most of us would say it is not my destiny or want, but there is the One who made us to be a teacher.

    As teachers, it our responsibility and duty to teach and serve little children.  We must put in our mind that we are not after only with the salary that we are about to receive , but to mold properly the heads, hands and hearts of those little children that are very fragile,sensitive and innocent, that their foundations lies in our hands.  We must remember that we are accountable as teachers not only to the children and their parents but most especially to our God who sees everything we do.

      Matthew 18:1-6

          “At the same time came, the disciples unto Jesus saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?  And Jesus called a little child unto Him and set him in the midst of them, verily I say unto you, except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.  Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.  And who shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth Me. 

           But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in Me, better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.”

         

CRITICAL ANALYSIS

     It doesn’t matter what kind of religion or denomination an individual belongs, what matters most is that he or she believes in the Divine Creator who is in control of everything.

     Realization and faith therapy emphasizes more on the spiritual aspects of every individual.  The therapists believes that if the spiritual aspects is satisfied or fulfilled and so with the faith, all other dimensions such as physical, mental, emotional and psychological will be fulfilled also.
