What Counsellors and Spiritual Directors Can Learn from Each Other : Ethical Practice, Training and Supervision Paperback / softback
Edited by Peter Madsen Gubi
Paperback / softback
Description
This new edited collection explores the intersection of spiritual direction and counselling/psychotherapy, and the relationship between the two.
Citing the influencing effect prayer and counselling have had on each other, the contributors offer insight into the similarities and differences of spiritual direction and counselling, and of what the disciplines have to learn from each other.
Advocating the importance of addressing the spiritual dimension of care in areas such as mental health and social care, this book promotes a synthesis of pastoral guidance and psychological counselling.
The chapters offer insight to the healing role spirituality and prayer can play when counselling for trauma, sexual abuse or loss of a loved one.
Whether discussing training counsellors to be spiritually literate, or exploring how spiritual accompaniers can take a psychologically-informed approach, all the contributors bring their extensive experience to bear working with spiritual and psychological issues.
