Original Recording Date :
Course Format
Recorded webinar.
In our contemporary times of unprecedented distress there is an ever rising demand for mental and behavioral healthcare. Helping professionals face clients who are struggling across multiple aspects of their lives. Traditionally, spirituality was not a component of treatment yet increasing attention is focused on the role spirituality might play in mental health and wellness. As we readjust to a COVID altered reality, many (not just clients) are struggling to make sense of the world around them, find meaning in their lives, and a sense pf community. This seminar invites attendees to explore the interrelatedness of mind, body, and spirit, what spirituality means and how and why their professional practice (or even their own well being) might benefit from a more whole person approach.
Learning Objectives:
- Distinguish spirituality from religion
- Recognize "whole person" approaches and their historical roots
- Differentiate between biochemical, biopsychosocial, biopsychosocial spiritual approaches to understanding mental health and wellness
- Examine the interaction between mind, body, and spirit and evaluate the utility of incorporating a spiritual component
