Beskrivning
In a time of growing psychological and spiritual need, this book is both a clinician's guide and an invitation for counselors, counselors-in-training, and integrative practitioners to practice greater depth, discernment, and humanity. Bridging the long-standing divide between empirical science and lived spiritual wisdom, this book offers a grounded alternative to both overly technical manuals and uncritical self-help texts. Drawing on more than 15 years of clinical experience and a robust body of empirical research, the authors blend evidence-based insights with vivid case narratives to illuminate how contemplative practices can support treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and existential distress. Chapters feature real-world clinical stories with concrete, usable practices, while addressing cultural humility, trauma-informed care, and ethical boundaries. This book clarifies how and when to use practices such as mindfulness, centering meditation, self-inquiry, and loving-kindness within contemporary counseling contexts. It foregrounds the counselor’s own inner work as integral to therapeutic effectiveness, positioning presence itself as a central and powerful intervention.

Recensioner i media

"Many clinicians know there are depth dimensions in the healing process because they experience these dimensions with their clients.  But the question is how to understand these deeper dimensions of healing –and how to actively draw on these dimensions as resources in the therapeutic work. In this book the authors share their insights into these matters they have learned in their clinical work over the years."James Finley, PhD, author of several popular books on spirituality and Christian mysticism including Merton's Palace of Nowhere, The Contemplative Heart, and Christian Meditation: Experiencing the Presence of God. Along with founder Richard Rohr, he is a core faculty member at the Center for Action and Contemplation (CAC) in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
