N2  - "When people walk into a therapist's office, they don't leave their spirituality in the waiting room - they bring their spiritual beliefs, practices, values, and struggles along with them. Yet many therapists find themselves unaware of or unprepared to deal with this dimension of a clients experience. This volume provides an innovative, empirically based framework for understanding the role of spirituality in people's lives and in psychotherapy, together with concrete tools for addressing it in clinical practice. From leading researcher and practitioner Kenneth I. Pargament, the book is balanced and nonsectarian in focus, making it an ideal resource for working with clients from diverse backgrounds."--Jacket
