Restorative & Crisis Care Certification Course Combo

Crisis Chaplaincy Training Course Teaches

A Chaplain is a front line minister. He or she deals with the hands on Spiritual support of all the points of crisis intervention. A Chaplain needs to be trained in how to minister in the midst of a critical incident. The Chaplain brings the Spiritual component into crisis intervention. Training for the Ministry of Presence is in the forefront of preparing for Chaplaincy and not everyone can be in the middle of a terrible event and not know how to work with the victims involved at the time of the event. There are things you do and do not do as a Chaplain and the person working in ministry certainly needs to be educated and credentialed to know what to do. The Chaplain can go where other Ministers and Caregivers cannot go. The Chaplain can go beyond the yellow ribbon and work with victims and first responders alike. This is why the Spiritual Link in crisis intervention is missing. There are not many experienced and trained Chaplains available. Your community desperately needs you.

Restorative Therapy Course Teaches

Looking To Start Your Own Counseling Practice Or Just Want to Know How To Help Others Who Are Hurting.

A counselor works on the backside of a crisis. The backside is what happens to a person who has been traumatized and the need for helping victims to be able to work through the crisis and why it happened is the counselors job. Counselors help people who hurt for a variety of problems that occur from just living life. Counselors have a much more settled base than Chaplains. They are trained to get behind the eyes of their clients to find the core or the root cause of the problems their clients are dealing with. Counselors need to be trained in a much broader scope of life controlling issues in order to be able to work with the people affected that they will be helping. The established treatment industry mainly deals with the dichotomy of the hurting person. Dichotomy simply means the body and soul. Most often the trichotomy is left out. The Spiritual component is the missing link that the Faith Based approach helps connect.

RESTORATIVE THERAPIST

What is a Restorative Therapist?

A Restorative Therapist is a counselor that uses the faith based certification program for training as opposed to the established treatment training program for counseling clients who come to them.

A Chaplain is more of a first responder than a back row counselor who usually i the time consuming. trainer more so than the first responder in ministry.

A Restorative Therapist is a counselor who takes more time to find out why the client is overcome by the problem they are there for. The Chaplain works with the client during the crisis and the counselor spends more time getting the background of how the crisis has affected the client from what the crisis is.

To Restore means to pat back in order that which is broken or torn down and have a better end than was at the beginning.

A person would need a restorative therapist when the client's problems are more extensive than at the time of the actual crisis when a Chaplain would be needed.

CREDENTIAL

What does the house bill 2481 that came about in 1997 in Texas mean for the Faith Based Community?

House Bill 2481 was passed in 1997 to expand the faith community in the non-profit status in order to be able to offer accreditation as a religious school or program to work with people with addictions known as chemical dependency training. This was just the beginning of the faith community opening up into the secular arena and being able to become credentialed because of the 501c3 organizations.

What do my Faith Based credentials mean to other people and organizations?

The FBCTI Training Credentials simply mean that you have received the highest and most sought after training available and can be trusted to know what to do for victims of crisis or what to say and do in a counseling setting.

Will my credentials be accepted in hospitals or the VA's?

You will be recognized just as a pastor’s license that is given by a religious organization you will be accepted as the same. It will depend on the administration of a hospital or VA if you intend to volunteer your services or be paid for your services. With some groups yes and others no. It just depends on whoever is running the facility.

Certification indicates credibility. It holds weight with church, schools, etc. Certification has much to do with who you are and what you have accomplished.

The ETI has nothing to do with faith in explaining the solutions to problems that people have difficulty overcoming. ETI began in the 1930s and 40s and the Faith Based industry has been around for thousands of years. The ETI most often goes straight to mind and body only, the faith based goes to those areas along with the Spirit, that is the missing link in the ETI establishment.
