5 p. 5 Cours Main Idas Th Nd Trating spiritual trauma is ncssary bcaus th majority of th world?s population is rligious and/ or spiritual. As such, spirituality will invitably play an important rol in th livs of many of our clints. Evn for thos who arn?t xplicitly rligious, trauma will oftn rais qustions of maning and purpos. Common Exprincs of Spirit ual Trauma Spiritual trauma may includ xprincs of physical abus, sxual abus, motional abus, abandonmnt, condmnation, or som typ of rligious prscution.

Int roduct ion t o t h 7 St ps Bing?Prsnt? is a foundational concpt in trating spiritual trauma bcaus it convys th accptanc and unconditional positiv rgard oftn ncssary to crat th atmosphr ncssary for haling. Compatibl with a varity of thortical framworks, th choic to b?prsnt? with a clint is convyd through body languag, ton, activ listning, and an attitud of mpathy and compassion. Paradox Th concpt of?paradox? is important for haling spiritual trauma bcaus it can both hlp and hindr a clint's haling procss. Whn stuck, an innr conflict, or?apparnt? paradox, can impair procssing, and prvnt th clint from conncting to adaptiv information. Whn a clint is askd to hold two?apparntly? contradictory concpts togthr, during bilatral stimulation this oftn will allow thm to ithr s?a way out? of th paradox or allow thm to find pac within it. Rl at ionship Th concpt of?rlationship? is important for haling spiritual trauma bcaus a clint's prcivd connction to God can b viwd as an attachmnt bond, and this bond, along with othr rlationships, may b damagd.
