The use of stories and metaphors in pastoral counseling with orphans and vulnerable children affected by HIV and AIDS in Mbeya, TanzaniaMwenisongole, Tuntufye Anangisye 11 1900 (has links)
The thesis describes the use of stories and metaphors in pastoral counseling with orphans and
vulnerable children (future: OVC) affected by HIV and AIDS in Mbeya.. It is a narrative approach
study which examines and explores stories and other metaphors for the children’s resilience. A
narrative approach helps pastoral counselors to use stories and metaphors such as life stories, proverbs,
biblical narratives, plays, art, songs, riddles, poems, symbols and images for the healing and coping
mechanism with OVC. The OVC in the midst of challenges of HIV and AIDS crisis can find a healing
and coping mechanism in Mbeya. A narrative approach with the use of stories and metaphors in
pastoral counseling and in practical theology can be used and applied in responding to issues
surrounding the OVC. It is an approach that can help the OVC find their resilience and grow into a
more meaningful life, the life of wholeness.
Methodologically, case studies, focus groups and interviews have been used to collect the data which
was analyzed and interpreted in detail to reach the objectives of the study. I explored and discussed in
detail the use of narratives, stories, and metaphors in case studies and focus groups with OVC in
Mbeya.
Finally, an integrative narrative model was established to build up a practical method for practical
theology and counseling in dealing with the challenges which the OVC are facing. The model came as
a result of the analysis and interpretation of the case studies, focus groups and interviews conducted in
the field research. It describes a life cycle of a person, the events and experiences one passes through,
which will ultimately help a person to grow and mature to become whole or an integrative being. / Practical Theology / D. Th. (Practical Theology, Specialisation Pastoral Therapy)
