Objectives:
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
Differentiate religion and spirituality and describe how each may influence clients’ identity, meaning-making, coping, and mental health.
Identify at least two ways clinicians’ own religious, spiritual, or nonreligious beliefs and experiences may influence the therapeutic relationship and clinical decision-making.
Apply a spiritual assessment framework to explore clients’ spiritual or religious identities, beliefs, practices, resources, concerns, and preferences for incorporating spirituality into treatment.
Identify core clinician competencies necessary for spiritually integrated psychotherapy, including relevant knowledge, spiritual/religious sensitivity, cultural humility, and awareness of professional limitations.
Differentiate potentially supportive spiritual beliefs and practices from spiritual experiences or coping patterns that may contribute to distress, avoidance, or spiritual bypassing.
Describe appropriate clinical responses to spiritual concerns and identify at least three ethical considerations associated with integrating spirituality into psychotherapy, including client autonomy, informed consent, therapist values, boundaries, and scope of competence.
Target Audience:
Classes are open to all licensed professional counselors, licensed social workers, psychologists, psychoanalysts, MFTs, Substance Abuse Counselors, and students who are curious and seek to expand their knowledge.
