Caring For The South Asian Soul: Counseling South Asians in the Western World

Caring For The South Asian Soul: Counseling South Asians in the Western World

Dr. Mabel Koshy
3/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Western countries have been the premiere choice of destinations for South Asians immigrants over the last five decades. This trend is escalating in the 21st century. Many have made amazing personal upward socio-economic strides in a relatively brief time. These admirable gains have not been without emotional pain or deep wounds to South Asian individuals, families and communities.
Here is both research-based diagnosis and insightful prescription by a team of seasoned scholar-practitioners of South Asian background thriving in the West. This is an invaluable resource for social workers, professional counselors, pastors, psychologists, lay counselors, educators, cross-cultural counselors and the like to bring healing to the South Asian soul.
Caring for the South Asian Soul is an invaluable resource for any care giver working with South Asians in the West but it is much more. A new paradigm for Christian counseling worldwide is emerging that is more culturally informed, theologically grounded, holistic, and missional, and as a result, more truly Biblical. This book—written by a team of fourteen well-trained and seasoned scholar-practitioners—is a wonderful practical application of this fresh perspective. It provides a model I hope others will follow. Bradford M. Smith, PhD, President, Care and Counsel International and Chair of Lausanne Care and Counsel as Mission Interest Group
Living as South Asian immigrants in the Western world has become an agonizing experience for many. Constant pressures of work, family responsibilities and cultural adjustments drastically affect marriage relationships, communication patterns and threaten long-cherished family values. The South Asian soul is bleeding and calls for urgent care. This book is superbly written by expert South Asian practitioner-scholars to provide an emergency response. Martin Alphonse PhD, Associate Professor of Intercultural Studies, Multnomah University, Portland
