Produktbeschreibung
Featuring chapters written by experts within philosophy, theology, spirituality, counseling, and psychology, Spirituality in Practice: Thematic Frameworks for Counseling explores the ways in which counselors can successfully integrate faith traditions within practice. By combining diverse, scholarly perspectives with opportunities for practical application, the text enables readers to discover new languages, ways of approaching clients, and visions for the profession. The book encourages novel ways of thinking and the application of interventions that support growth and recovery. Readers learn about the interplay of religion/spirituality, human wholeness, and ultimate goals, as well as how faith in a transcendent and immanent God can be used as an intervention strategy. Dedicated chapters address the challenges of post-modernity and faith; insights from psychology and philosophy that bolster the healing process; the positive effect of prayer on mental health; and key tenets and beliefs of Sufism, Buddhism, and Hinduism that can inform counseling practice. Further coverage includes mysticism in therapy, counseling culturally and religiously diverse populations, and spiritual journeys. Spirituality in Practice is ideal for graduate-level and upper-level undergraduate courses in counseling. It is also an excellent guide for practitioners across all cultural, religious, and faith traditions.
