Description
Spirit in Session: A Practical Guide to Working with Your Client's Spirituality in Psychotherapy Spirituality plays a significant role in many people's lives, offering a source of stability, healing, and growth. However, it can also be a source of struggle and harm. As therapists, it's essential to address spirituality in therapy and develop skills to engage with it in an ethical and effective way. This book provides a practical guide to help therapists build their confidence and competence in having spiritual conversations with clients. Russell Siler Jones shares his expertise, drawing on his 30 years of experience as a therapist and over a decade of training therapists in the use of spirituality. He offers a down-to-earth approach, explaining how to recognize the diverse ways spirituality appears in therapy, assess its impact, and make interventions to maximize its healthy effects. The book includes extended case studies and clinical dialogue to illustrate how spirituality can be integrated into case conceptualization and therapy sessions. With its elegant simplicity and practical advice, Spirit in Session is a valuable resource for therapists seeking to enhance their practice and engage with their clients on a deeper level.
