  • ""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 at each stage of the therapeutic process, from clinical intake through termination. Practical strategies, techniques, and examples are used to show how spirituality can influence each stage of treatment, and the authors describe the importance of ethical practice guidelines and therapist self- awareness when considering matters of spirituality. 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 contributors discuss therapist self-awareness tools such as genograms, autobiography, journaling, and mindfulness as well as recommendations for overcoming biases toward spirituality. They also 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 chapters provide examples of probing questions and assessment instruments for exploring how spirituality can be a source of strength or can confound problems, along with sample treatment plans that address various encounters with clients' spirituality"--Jaquette.
