HTH B09 - Spirituality

Course Description

Encountering religiosity and spiritual commitments in work with clients provides a powerful opportunity to understand attitudes, values, motivation and behavior. Understanding begins, however, with consideration of the practitioner’s perspective, sense of self as religious, and capacity to welcome representations of spirituality in practice. The primary goal of this webinar is to acquaint practitioners with spirituality and religious beliefs and attitudes as they emerge in treatment, to see expressions of spirituality as a means to understand the client’s worldview, strengths and experiences, and even as a resource for mapping the therapy process. A critical notion will be establishing a sense of therapeutic or healing space as the ground for the therapy relationship and place for growth and change.
