Spirituality and Social Care

"This resource is for professionals and students in social care, who are required to engage in the spiritual dimension of their therapeutic work with clients. The authors show how they have developed ways of applying their own and their clients' spirituality in their practice. The client groups they cover include children, older people, individuals with learning disabilities, and ethnic minority and indigenous groups. Drawing on theological and philosophical ideas from different cultures, this resource gives guidance on and examples of practice that together should enable the reader to explore and develop the role of spiritual awareness in their work"--Publisher's description.
