“…This supports the literature about incorporating religious and spiritual variables in the training of practitioners (Allman, et al, 1992;Aten & Worthington Jr., 2009;Brawer, et al, 2002;Briggs & Rayle, 2005;Hage, et al, 2006;Shafranske & Malony, 1990;Young, et al, 2007). The discussion explored the way that the spiritual was either part of the process or could not be excluded from the whole endeavour of counselling.…”

“…The conclusion of researchers was the need to develop curricular and training guidelines in this area as there was little evidence of what is being taught on training courses (Young, Wiggins-Frame, & Cashwell, 2007). In addition, practitioners reported difficulties and confusion on how to work with spiritual issues in therapy.…”

A co-operative inquiry group consisting of 8 counsellors met for 11 months to explore their experience of spirituality in their counselling training and in their work with clients (Swinton, 2010; 2015). The aim was to explore whether spirituality was absent from the process of counselling training, specifically to discover (1) how counsellors perceived and described their experience of spirituality in their training and (2) with a view to developing spiritual pedagogy; how spirituality could be incorporated into the training process of practitioners. From these groups although four main themes were identified, what is being considered in this paper is how the inquiry group process proved to be a useful vehicle for transformative learning and a dynamic means for individuals to engage with the topic in counselling training.

“…Similarly, only one out of four accredited clinical psychology programs offer a course on RS (Shafer et al 2011). Other helping professions report feeling ill-equipped to address clients' RS struggles in treatment, including marriage and family therapy (Carlson et al 2002;McNeil et al 2012), nursing (Strang et al 2002), and counseling (Young et al 2007).…”

The Religious and Spiritual Beliefs and Practices among Practitioners across Five Helping Professions

Abstract:Helping professionals' religious and spiritual beliefs and practices have been reported as important components in the consideration of clients' religion/spirituality (RS) in mental and behavioral health treatment. However, no study to date has simultaneously examined and compared five helping professions' RS beliefs and practices, including psychologists, social workers, counselors, nurses, and marriage and family therapists. The current study is a secondary analysis of 536 licensed helping professionals in Texas to answer the following questions: (1) What levels of intrinsic religiosity and frequency of religious activities exist across these five professions, and how do they compare?; (2) To what extent do these five professions consider themselves religious or spiritual, and how do they compare?; and (3) What are the religious beliefs and practices across these five professions, and how do they compare? Results indicated significant differences across the five professions with regards to their religious affiliation, frequently used RS practices and activities, degree to which each profession self-identifies as spiritual, as well as intrinsic religiosity. A general comparison between helping professionals' responses with the general population's RS is also discussed. Implications based on these findings, as well as recommendations for future studies are included, particularly given the recent movement toward transdisciplinary clinical practice.

“…Maneviyatın ruh sağlığı ve okul psikolojik danışmanlığına entegrasyonu, danı-şan müdahaleleri planlamasında değerlendirilmesi gereken, ihmal edilmiş fakat yerinde bir boyut olarak, literatürde giderek bir odak noktası olmuştur (örneğin, Hall, Dixon, & Mauzey, 2004;Ingersoll & Bauer, 2004;Lambie, Davis, & Miller, 2008;MacDonald, 2004;Oakes & Raphel, 2008;Stanard, Sandhu, & Painter, 2000;Young, Wiggins-Frame, & Cashwell, 2007). Daha önceleri, insan gelişiminin bir bileşeni olarak kabul edilmesine karşın maneviyatın öğrencilerin yaşamında oynadığı rolün üzerinde fazla durulmamaktaydı (Sink & Richmond, 2004).…”

Abstract: School Counselors' Comfort and Competence With Spirituality IssuesForty-four school counselors and school counseling interns participated in a descriptive study that explored whether students include spirituality and religious issues when they see their school counselor and assessed school counselors' comfort and perceived competence in addressing these concerns. Findings indicated that most respondents (86%) had spirituality and religious issues arise in their student-counselingrelated interactions; 88% reported feeling comfortable with the issues and 61% believed they were competent to address them. The majority of the respondents attributed their competence to their master's-level graduate training; 80% also identified the need to improve their competence level. Implications for practice were discussed.
