Whoops! Looks like my question was answered (with a "Yes") on another thread regarding the Counseling Guide. Can't wait! Loving the changes to make Logos even more enjoyable to use. Thanks for your good work!

Sean, are you guys looking for input on what we would like to see tagged for this? I am ready, willing, and able to send you an extensive list if it would be helpful. PS - I am not complaining. I love this new feature and can see myself using it a lot. Just want to help make it the best it can be! LOL

I'm disappointed with this guide presently because of the very limited results I get after entering a topic. I only see a summary from the Baker Encyclopedia of Psychology and Counselling, only 2-4 Bible passages, and no results of monographs. I do have more than 20 resources related to psychology/counselling. A basic search in my counselling collection of resources is more profitable. I must be doing something wrong but I have no idea what that may be. Any help would be most welcome.

I'd recommend you try a few more of the hundreds of topics: some are richer than others, but for example Anxiety has several related articles from Tim Clinton's resources, along with several relevant passages, links to other Counseling Topics as well as other related information.
We started with a set of practical and broad resources (listed above in this thread), but we're continuing to annotate more: the Baker Encyclopedia is new since I made that list. Many topics should provide at least 1-2 relevant articles, and we've already collected other content around these topics that will be coming soon.

Unfortunately this happens all the time with FL. The tell you they are giving you this great new featur.
Release it with much fanfare and the afterwards after building expectations tell you sorry we’ve only tagged a handful of resources to work with the feature. They put marketing ahead of managing user expectations of what they are getting.
Its thumbs up to Sean and the team for the great work they do in this area but thumbs down to how they communicate these things to users. They have been doing this long enough to no longer pass it off as a communication error. This is a choice to put marketing ahead of other things which is a shame because Logos 9 will be a great product in 6-12 months time.David De Haan said:I'm disappointed with this guide presently because of the very limited results I get after entering a topic.

Thank you Sean. I am delighted to see this feature and believe there is great potential to aid elders in their works of service in their church family. So I eagerly await FL additional annotated resources! Praying blessings for you and team in this work.

Angela, the list is the same for Verbum and Logos. The list above in this thread is the resources that have already been annotated: we plan to continue annotating other counseling resources across the Logos and Verbum libraries, as long as they're subject-oriented reference material.

At first, I was very interested in the Counseling Guide, but after testing it out with multiple common counseling issues. I am disappointed. I have been counseling for over 13 years. I have invested significantly in Logos over the years, including many of their counseling resources. Only a few of them are coming up in the Counseling Guide. I find many more results by just doing a search in my counseling collection. For example, Anorexia got no journals and one monograph in the guide. My Counseling collection received 387 results in 57 resources.

I have a question. I looked up a subject in the guide, interests me personally, and the summary was excellent. I was not surprised to see anything under monographs as the tagging is ongoing. I am so looking forward to it being fleshed out. My confusion is in the passage section. In the summary section, a specific passage in Leviticus's book is mentioned, and it was right on point. When I opened the passage section, not one verse was listed. I would have thought that if a passage is listed in summary, that, at a minimum, that one passage would be listed in the passage section.
Of course, it could just be me, and I might be totally nuts, but I think that would make sense.
I love the counseling guide's idea, and I have tons of resources that, when properly tagged with, make this a handy tool. But the whole not listing any passages just threw me.

Thanks for the feedback Carla. The summaries come from third-party resources: the Passages section comes from Faithlife. We consulted the annotated resources, but made independent decisions: we're also continuing to look for additional key passages to add to the Passages section (Liz, our curator, managed to come up with one for arachnophobia though it's a little indirect).

So how can I customize the Guide so that it brings up the resources I prefer? For instance, I am a biblical counselor and have invested heavily in biblical counseling resources, yet the guide brings up none of those and instead defaults to a Christian Psychology resource for definitions, etc. Not trying to spark anything here, just really interested in customizing it for the best use in my particular ministry.

Mason, i've attached a simple rendering of the counseling ontology in an HTML file. Open this with a browser, and you should be able to browse the structure, and the hyperlinks should open the Counseling Guide to the appropriate page. We're still working on the dataset documentation for the Counseling Themes dataset, but we'll probably include something like this in it when that's shipped.

The Guide only displays resources that we've annotated with our counseling themes ontology: for example, that's what maps the Counseling Guide concept of Communication about Money to an article in a resource called "Money Huddles". Probably the ones you prefer haven't yet been annotated. We're working on annotating additional resources and journals, so you should see more resources added in the coming weeks.

Thanks. I'll keep my eye out for those. It really looks like an awesome resource to utilize.

It seems the Verbum packages don't come with any of these resources. I am trying to decide on a package to buy and based on this information it seems the counseling guide would not be usable within Verbum. I'd have to buy a Logos package to have any of the connected resources.

Interesting situation. With the current state of the tagging, which I know will get better soon. I actually had better results opening the new Factbook, entering my term, and choosing counseling theme from the drop-down menu. I now have a new L9 reading plan for a book I found in my library that was just what I was looking for. The number of resources it brought up was still limited as I have 5X as many resources in my library on that topic than what it did bring up, but It was a good start and had more information, especially Bible Passages than the Counseling Guide.
I am not gripping or complaining, just reporting on what I found. I am eagerly anticipating the full build-out of the Counseling Guide. I have great hopes for it.

The Verbum packages--at least some of them--definitely come with relevant resources that I am sure will be tagged for the Counseling Guide. That just hasn't happened yet.

Verbum Silver Feature Upgrade includes the Counseling Ontology (https://verbum.com/compare/featuresets), but I'm not sure about the various resources. The Clinton Quick Reference Collection would provide be a solid set of content.

I'm glad that strategy is working well for you, though i'm a little puzzled: i'd expect the Factbook information for a Counseling Theme to be about the same as what's in the Counseling Guide. I'd be curious to know what Factbook pages work this way for you.

I agree as well, The Journal of Modern Ministry would also be a good addition.

These guides will always be curated in terms of what resources are tagged to work with them which once enough resources are tagged and providing you own those resources will make the great starting points. But there will always be other information in your library beyond what the guides point too and so making use of search collections to get to those resources not curated for the guide will always be necessary and valuable when you want even more depth or breadth of information on a topic.

I understand the choice of starting of with June Hunt resources due to their breadth in order to kick it off. These was a Chaplains base package that was available a number of years ago built around this set. But agree with you both that Jay Adams and Gary Collins are no-brainers in terms of individuals whose writings need to be grafted with urgency into this guide if FL want to target writings n this field are known and respected. And the Journal of Biblical Counselling is another one of those resources that just has to be there. Lots of the target audience will have this through the journal bundles they have picked over the years or because they work in this field and will have it so it's not lilke very few people would have it in their libraries who are either pastors or working in counselling.

I'd like to see the following resources tagged:
- The Journal of Biblical Counseling
- The Journal of Pastoral Practice
- Everything by Jay Adams, especially The Christian Counselor’s Manual: The Practice of Nouthetic Counseling
I'm not quite sure how it would work, but I'd also like the guide expanded to cover counselling methods, rather than just topics. For example, Counselling: How to counsel biblically has chapters that cover things such as Developing a Helping Relationship with Counselees and Instilling Hope in the Counselee. These, and many similar methodological chapters, are vital in counselling, and it would be a real help if they could be surfaced in the guide.
This is my personal Faithlife account. On 1 March 2022, I started working for Faithlife, and have a new 'official' user account. Posts on this account shouldn't be taken as official Faithlife views!

I have taken a quick look at the counseling guide with some interest in its development. On one hand I find the connected listing with related as almost a useless tool for my day-to-day work as a licensed therapist (LCSW/LISW/MSW)/D. Min). On the other hand if this tool can be used, simplified, and meaningful then it is likely that my pocketbook will be a bit more open to FL. Limitations of this guide after purchasing hundreds if not thousands of counseling resources from FL seems more than a bit frustrating. After a drive by of the guide it seems to me that, at best, its a high school guide to mental health topics....for the guide to be useful it needs to be, at minimum, a level 100 general guide accessing my resources. You have my interest FL how about adding substance?
