Ethical Integration of Spirituality in Practice

2 CEUs - may be counted as Clinical, Ethics or Supervision

NASWMN Chapter 0 1316

At the core of spirituality is the idea of making meaning or sense out of our suffering and experiences in life.  This is something that all social workers will have to wrestle with as individuals, as well as guide their clients in during the helping process.  With the perspective of the whole person, social workers cannot ignore the deep spiritual significance of suffering and needing help.   It is, however, of utmost importance that in integrating spirituality into practice, social workers understand the ethical guidelines in this often-ignored area of practice.  It is also imperative that field instructors and supervisors understand practical examples of how this can be done and how to help teach it to students and those under supervision.
