Description

By offering spiritual direction and receiving supervision, this practicum will challenge the student to reflect on a growing sensitivity to interior movements, such as, transference and countertransference. Since spiritual direction is a professional relationship which has spiritual, ethical, and legal implications, this course will also present the ethical standards for spiritual directors, spiritual counselors, and pastoral counselors. Topics will include: privileged communication, confidentiality, mental health laws, liability and the handling of potential litigation. Practicum 2 includes 5 two-hour individual supervision sessions. Prerequisite: GRSP 601A
