This book is for therapists who want to enhance their effectiveness
with clients whose spirituality is a salient part of their
worldview. Whether or not the therapist has a spiritual background,
the authors demonstrate that it is possible to honor clients'
spiritual experience from the beginning to the end of the
therapeutic process.Practical strategies, techniques, and examples
are used to show how spirituality can influence each stage of
treatment from before the clinical intake, starting with an
understanding of ethical practice guidelines and therapist
self-awareness, through termination. Self-reflection questions,
diverse case examples, and a multiple session case study chapter
are provided to build readers' understanding and ability to
incorporate spirituality into counseling and
psychotherapy.Practitioners in a broad variety of fields, including
counseling and clinical psychology, counselor education, and
marriage and family therapy will find this book to be a rich source
of ideas for examining and modifying their practice. The authors
discuss therapist self-awareness tools such as genogram,
autobiography, journaling, and mindfulness; recommendations for
overcoming biases toward spirituality; and how an agency's climate,
referral sources, and intake forms can discourage or set the stage
for discussing the spiritual.The chapters provide example probing
questions and assessment instruments for exploring how spirituality
can be a source of strength or confound problems, and present
sample treatment plans that address various encounters with
clients' spirituality. The authors demonstrate how meaning systems
theory can inform case conceptualization and how spiritual
discussions and interventions can be part of cognitive behavioral,
interpersonal, psychodynamic, and humanistic therapies.The book
also prepares readers for spiritual issues that frequently arise in
termination, even if spirituality had not been a focus in previous
sessions.
