Some reviews from other websites:

There is hope here! An accessible, practical and deeply encouraging resource that brings together discipleship practices, Christ-centered recovery skills, and research-supported pastoral care exercises, LifeCare guides you through the process of attending to your past, thought life, emotions, behaviors, and difficult circumstances to help you find the joy and purpose of abundant life. For all who feel called to address issues in life and relationships, but never find the time or context, LifeCare can be used as a personal guide, or with others, to develop healthy patterns and attitudes – releasing us to be all God has made us to be, and in time enabling us to help others do the same. No matter how stuck you feel, you can change. This book is not a prescription for an easy solution, nor a soothing tonic to deepen your denial. It’s a guide to a more fulfilling life, and it will ask you to work. So if you are ready to grow, find in these pages a path toward redemption and the stories to prove you can get there.

"A profoundly practical, biblical and enlightening book ... As you read it, you may come to realise that change is possible because God is a specialist in restoring broken lives."
Dr Pablo Martinez, Psychiatrist, Author and Bible Teacher

We all experience deep hurt, or challenging life events, at some point in our lives. We all need to care for our emotional and mental health. But most of us do so alone, with little access to help of any kind. According to the World Health Organization, hundreds of millions of people around the world struggle with emotional and relational issues—and do not have access to help. LifeCare is a response to this crisis. An accessible, practical and deeply encouraging resource that brings together discipleship practices, Christ-centered recovery skills, and research-supported pastoral care exercises, LifeCare guides you through the process of attending to your past, thought life, emotions, behaviors, and difficult circumstances to help you find the joy and purpose of abundant life. For all who feel called to address issues in life and relationships, but never find the time or context, LifeCare can be used as a personal guide, or with others, to develop healthy patterns and attitudes – releasing us to be all God has made us to be, and in time enabling us to help others do the same.
