Spirituality can be an integral component of people’s lives and a useful tool in therapy. This training will provide a rationale for integrating a spiritual approach into therapy, along with the ethical role of the therapist in working with diverse populations. Practical strategies for incorporating spiritual assessments and interventions into the therapeutic setting will be presented. A grand case study video will demonstrate therapeutic skills and provide an example of how individuals can be supported in exploring their religion and spirituality.
