ABSTRACT
Today's therapists are faced with a myriad of challenges in their quest to provide the best and most appropriate care for each of their clients. In our training, for the most part, religion and spirituality are left out of the equation. Knowing that many individuals are searching for some type of meaning in their lives and that religion and spirituality are important issues to a large number of people, it follows that to become a truly effective therapist one needs to become more knowledgeable and comfortable in dealing with religious and spiritual issues. This article explores various aspects of religion and spirituality as a part of marital and family therapy including definitions, attitudes and beliefs, ethical issues, culture, and training.
