Jay E. Adams is a Reformed theologian known for his work on the development of counseling that is a Biblical and Reformed alternative[1] to that of "standard", liberal psychology. His work was inspired mostly by Reformed theology and partly by Thomas Szasz and O.H. Mowrer.[2]
One of his most representative books is Competent to Counsel, which discusses how the Holy Spirit can bring about positive change in Biblically-centered counseling
| “ | A good seminary education rather than medical school or a degree in clinical psychology, is the most fitting background for a counselor.[3] | ” |
Nouthetic counseling
Adams began to publish and speak about his psychological theories in 1970, giving them the name nouthetic counseling. The need for Nouthetic counseling was based on 3 points: (1) modern psychological theories were bad theology, (2) psychotherapeutic professions were a false pastorate, (3) the Bible already instructed pastors in the ways needed to counsel.[2]
