The Spiritual Heart of Psychotherapy

The Spiritual Heart of Psychotherapy is an essential text for established and training therapists who want to integrate spirituality into their work with clients in a way that improves not only their mental health but also their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

Bringing together evidence-based theory and client stories gleaned from more than 35 years of clinical practice, this book shows psychotherapists how to engage with spirituality, incorporating the client’s unique soul and traditional cultural practices into a pilgrimage of recovery that reaches beyond symptom relief and toward meaning, connection, and inner wholeness. Client resource and clinician reflection sections are included for each chapter to assist in embodying the concepts and practices discussed.

This unique book is critical reading for psychotherapists, pastoral caregivers, and other healthcare professionals looking to expand and deepen their healing practices.
