Ivo Yanev, Pastoral and Psychological Aspects in the Works of Three Hierarchs The goal of this paper is to highlight the place, role, and importance of the Church Fathers, particularly the Three Great Saints—St. Basil the Great, St. Gregory the Theologian, and St. John Chrysostom—in modern pastoral psychology and psychotherapy. It aims to demonstrate that this form of psychology has always been an integral part of the Orthodox Church's approach to healing and care.
