Spirituality and Clinical Interventions:
Ethical Considerations

Spirituality is a globally acknowledged concept which involves belief and obedience to an all-powerful force. It involves the ways in which people fulfill what they hold to be the purpose of their lives, a search for the meaning of life, and a sense of connectedness to the universe and others. Research strongly suggests that to many clients, spirituality helps them to cope with life in a more meaningful way. Clinicians appear to have rediscovered the impact of spirituality and religion in the clinical relationship while honoring ethical principles. We can work to help one another to navigate better these, at times, challenging waters.
