Spiritual Interventions and Attachment offers a variety of models of lay minister-driven spiritual interventions to which clergy from diverse religious backgrounds might consider referring their congregants. Each chapter reviews a specific model, providing a history, description, inclusion and exclusion criteria, training requirements, and a clinical illustration. The author also provides a critique of each model using attachment theory as the organizing framework.
All these models are designed to ease the overwhelming burden of clergy, who are unable to provide appropriately matched pastoral care to all their congregants who experience spiritual and emotional struggles. University course instructors, clergy, chaplains, pastoral counselors, lay ministers, and mental health professionals will benefit from this insightful book.
