Effective clinical practice is emphasized with individual chapters on assessment and case conceptualization, intervention, outcome assessment and termination, and cultural and ethical considerations. The text highlights new developments in spirituality, neuroscience, and moral injury, while continuing to provide a concise, theory-based framework for understanding the spiritual dimension. Readers can use this framework as the basis for competently integrating spirituality in effective, evidence-based psychotherapy practice.
This practical book is essential for clinicians who wish to incorporate spirituality into their practice, as well as students and trainees preparing to practice spiritually integrated therapies.
