Book Description
Contemporary interest in spirituality is widely evident in the media, books, journals and programs of renewal. There has also arisen a kind of permission among empiricists and the social sciences alike to renewed dialogue between science and spirituality once so intrinsic to any complete understanding of healing. Therapeutic work, whether from a secular or spiritual framework, belongs to the ennobled professions as that of healing. Professional therapists working from either secular or religious orientations are invited by this book to understand, recognize and utilize the spiritual dimensions of a therapeutic relationship without compromising either the science of their craft or the religious sensibilities of those who seek their help.
