<![CDATA[This study aims to develop a Christian-based cognitive-behavioral counseling (CBT) model designed to address emotional issues in individuals. Cognitive-behavioral therapy has proven effective in treating various emotional disorders by identifying and altering maladaptive thought patterns. However, there is a need for an approach that integrates spiritual principles into counseling to provide more holistic support. This model combines CBT techniques with Christian teachings, leveraging theological foundations to support cognitive and behavioral change. The model integrates biblical principles such as transformation of the mind (Romans 12:2), control of thoughts (Philippians 4:8), and forgiveness (Colossians 3:13) with CBT techniques like cognitive restructuring, self-monitoring, and behavioral exercises. Interventions in this model include spiritual reflection, prayer, and the application of biblical teachings within the counseling process. The study involves testing the model on a small group of clients to assess the effectiveness and relevance of integrating CBT techniques with Christian principles. Results from the trial indicate that the model is not only effective in addressing emotional issues but also strengthens clients' faith and provides deeper meaning and purpose in their lives. The findings are expected to make a significant contribution to the field of counseling by offering a more comprehensive and holistic approach that combines psychological and spiritual support. The study concludes that integrating CBT with Christian counseling can enhance therapeutic effectiveness, providing deeper and more meaningful support for individuals in managing their emotional challenges.]]>
