Spirituality for Human Service Providers and Their Clients
Therapy and spirituality? Many therapists have been taught that they shouldn’t be mixed. In this workshop, however, you will learn how spirituality and therapy are inextricably bound and how to use spirituality with even the most challenging cases.
Through lecture, case examples, poetry, music and clear handouts, participants will learn new therapeutic tools and ideas that respectfully work with each client’s sense of spirituality.
