Clinical Education Programs

​

While most therapists today are open to integrating spirituality into their therapy, meaningful training for it is scarce. This workshop will help therapists intentionally integrate spirituality in client-centered ways by learning:

​

  • A greater understanding of the spiritual dimension and how it intersects and is distinct from theology and religious practice.

​

  • How to integrate spirituality in ways that honor clients’ healthy religious beliefs, practices, and traditions, while also working through unhealthy ones.

​

  • How to bring spirituality into sessions by focusing on spiritual resources.

 

  • A spiritual, mental, physical, and relational diagnostic scheme with strategies on how to seek a healthy integration. 

​

​

Samaritan Counseling, Guidance, Consulting is a Western Pennsylvania leader in offering spiritually-integrated psychotherapy. Our staff are well trained and experienced in this longstanding Samaritan practice.

​

Our Teachers:
