What to Do When Counseling Fails by Jay Adams

Every counselor will fail. But what does failure mean? What are some principal causes of failure? What can be learned from failure, and what can be done to avoid future failure? Since failure among fallen man—even those redeemed by God’s grace—will occur, what can be done to rectify failures? This is an important study for those counselors who have not adequately examined the counseling practices which lead to failure. It is designed to aid those who want to reduce the number of failures they encounter and will lead them to success in the face of failure.
