The Person of the Therapist Training Model presents a model that
prepares therapists to make active and purposeful use of who they
are, personally and professionally, in all aspects of the
therapeutic process-relationship, assessment and intervention. The
authors take a process that seems vague and elusive, the
self-of-the-therapist work, and provide a step-by-step description
of how to conceptualize, structure, and implement a training
program designed to facilitate the creation of effective
therapists, who are skilled at using their whole selves in their
encounters with clients. This book looks to make conscious and
planned use of a therapist's race, gender, culture, values, life
experience, and in particular, personal vulnerabilities and
struggles in how he or she relates and works with clients. This
evidence-supported resource is ideal for clinicians, supervisors,
and training programs.

Exploring the role of spirituality in couple and family
relationships, this successful text and practitioner guide
illustrates ways to tap spiritual resources for coping, healing,
and resilience. Leading experts in family therapy and pastoral care
discuss how faith beliefs and practices can foster personal and
relational well-being, how religious conflicts or a spiritual void
can contribute to distress, and what therapists can gain from
reflecting on their own spiritual journeys. The volume is rich with
insights for working with multi-faith and culturally diverse
clients.New to This Edition: *Coverage of death and loss, healing
from refugee trauma, meditation practices for couples, use of
rituals, and forgiveness.*Chapter on resilience now includes Hindu
and Muslim perspectives in addition to Jewish, Christian, and
Buddhist views.
Stressing culture, community and choice, this book outlines a
therapy for the new poor, a people poor more because they have lost
their spirit than because they lack bread. It urges therapists to
recognize and work with spiritual forces in the poor and to avoid
opportunistic practical solutions that assume that they are too
poor, hungry and downtrodden to care about meaning and purpose.
