Recenzii
“This revised edition of Spirituality in Clinical Practice supersedes any current book in the field and sets a new and higher standard for all those that follow. It represents the first day of a truly integrated spiritual psychology... I have no doubt that it will be of immense value to both trainees and experienced clinicians.” - Lisa Miller, From the Foreword
"Len Sperry has written a second edition of Spirituality in Clinical Practice. But this is a new book, not a touched-up version of ideas that are now long in the tooth. Sperry’s perceptions are as acute as ever. His mind is laser-accurate and his thinking is current. He provides new insights for the clinician in a world that is becoming increasingly spiritually oriented. I particularly liked the second part of the revised edition, which is not something we’ve seen before – a current, theoretically driven view of the entire psychotherapy process. But, even the heavily revised and updated first part of the book is worth the read if you are mining for a current and relevant understanding of how to understand and treat clients who are spiritually oriented.” - Everett L. Worthington, Jr., Virginia Commonwealth University, USA
"This outstanding book integrates insights from multiple sources (theoretical, empirical, clinical, spiritual) and breaks new ground in illuminating how the spiritual dimensions of human existence are intertwined with psychological and interpersonal dynamics. Dr. Sperry’s clinical experience and wisdom, so generously shared in this book, will help mental health professionals of diverse backgrounds and therapeutic orientations integrate spirituality more competently into their everyday practices.” - P. Scott Richards, Brigham Young University, USA
“Dr. Sperry brings medical, psychological, and spiritual wisdom together in this volume, making it indispensable. It has an abundance of information and skills for therapists who strive for competency in today's world.” - Richard H. Cox, Duke University Medical School, and in private practice, North Carolina, USA
“With his focus on spiritual development, the therapeutic relationship, assessment, and interventions, Sperry takes the most numinous of concepts, spirituality, and clearly articulates how clinicians can competently and ethically integrate spirituality into the therapeutic process. This applied text is brilliantly written and valuable for both the novice and seasoned therapist.” - Craig Cashwell, University of North Carolina at Greensboro, USA
“This thoroughly updated edition of Sperry’s classic Spirituality in Clinical Practice is well- grounded in current theory and research on both spirituality and therapy. Sperry provides practical guidance in not simply incorporating but actually integrating spirituality into assessment and treatment. Special attention is given to critical topics, including assessment and termination, as well as cultural and ethical issues. This book will be of use for clinicians in training as well as experienced clinicians seeking to deepen their integration of spiritual issues in their practice.” - Crystal L. Park, University of Connecticut, USA
“This second edition updates theoretical concepts about the many dimensions of spirituality and then provides practical ways to integrate spirituality into everyday clinical practice. This book will help clinicians of all disciplines put spirituality on their radar screens in their clinical work with others.” - Francis G. Lu, UC Davis, USA
“Len Sperry has written a text to move mental health practitioners beyond awareness of spirituality to completely integrating the spiritual dimension in everyday clinical practice. The second edition of Spirituality in Clinical Practice infuses spiritually-oriented psychotherapy in all aspects of the therapeutic practice, including relationship building, case conceptualization and termination. This book is a valuable resource to students and practicing clinicians who wish to become more familiar with the clinical aspects of the spiritual dimension.” - Joshua M. Gold, PhD, NCC, University of South Carolina, USA
“With this new edition, Dr. Sperry has made a quality book even better. He has significantly revised and updated the text, and his coverage of key issues regarding spirituality in clinical practice is both astute and accessible. Spirituality in Clinical Practice: Theory and Practice of Spiritually Oriented Psychotherapy is a valuable contribution to the literature and I highly recommend it.” - Richard E. Watts, Sam Houston State University, USA
“Spirituality in Clinical Practice provides an up-to-date, accessible, and practical guide to address the spiritual dimension in psychotherapy. Beginning with a cogent discussion of spirituality within a developmental context, Sperry then considers the ways in which spiritual issues present in treatment. His discussion of the therapeutic relationship, assessment, case conceptualization, and interventions incorporates multiple perspectives and provides useful tools for clinical practice. Unique to this text is an overview of the impacts of personality on spirituality, God image and the nature of prayer. The author’s expertise in psychiatry, psychology, and spirituality is illustrated throughout this thought- provoking and clinically relevant book.” - Edward Shafranske, Pepperdine University, USA
"In this book Dr. Len Sperry tackles pertinent questions and issues in order to help therapists and other mental health professionals address the spiritual aspects of their clients’ lives, such as how spirituality differs from religion, how to handle transference and countertransference, and what defines good termination practices in spiritually oriented psychotherapy. Extended case examples and up-to-date research and literature bring the text alive and ensure its usefulness to professionals in this field." - Harold G. Koenig, Duke University, North Carolina, USA
“This is a must-read text for professionals at all levels. It provides an excellent synthesis and integration of the theories underlying psychological applications of spirituality and provides a detailed, ‘how to’ guide for integrating spirituality into all aspects of treatment. Comprehensive, rich in examples, and well written, it should become a standard text for training and practice in the field.” - Ralph L. Piedmont, Loyola University, Maryland, USA
“Dr. Len Sperry's second edition of Spirituality in Clinical Practice provides a thoughtful, engaging, and compelling discussion of both the theory and application of spiritually integrated psychotherapy and counseling. In the ten years since the first edition of this classic text was published much has changed in the field and Dr. Sperry has well articulated these new developments in this fast growing area of research and clinical practice. Psychologists, counselors, spiritual directors, and anyone interested in spiritually informed clinical practice should have this book and will find this important second edition of tremendous value. I know I will!” - Thomas G. Plante, Santa Clara University, USA
"It is hard to praise it too highly. For anyone interested in this area of work (and I think everyone should be) it is a fine resource. This is a well done book." - John Rowan in ACP North London Magazine, February 2012

Descriere
Spirituality in Clinical Practice is light years beyond books that emphasizes developing therapist awareness of spirituality; instead it emphasizes the effective integration of spirituality in all dimension of psychotherapy process: therapeutic alliance, assessment, case conceptualization, intervention, and termination.
