This book provides a thorough examination of how the resource of spirituality—an increasingly relevant topic for both practitioners and patients—can be applied professionally and where the boundaries lie. Existential conflicts and the associated questions of spirituality and religion are no longer taboo in psychotherapy and psychiatry today. A culturally sensitive approach requires knowledge and empathy for the client's belief system. Furthermore, the book offers foundational insights for understanding and therapeutically supporting religious individuals in psychological crises. The second, completely revised edition includes expanded chapters on narcissism and mindfulness. It is written for psychotherapists in clinics and private practice, psychiatrists, staff in counseling centers, chaplains, and interested clients. Contents include: addressing questions of meaning and transcendence in psychotherapy.
