Reflections on a Case of Spirituality in Clinical Practice

摘要

In this Reflections article, the author introduces and shares a poem he wrote about his 10-year therapeutic journey with a patient; discusses some of the psychodynamics and transference of the Case; and concludes by demonstrating the congruence and mutual illumination between 2 articles he has recently read and his work as presented in his poem-which he wrote 3 years prior to reading these articles. The author shows how excerpts from these articles and the author's poem about his work give a taste of the reciprocity between certain conceptualizations of spirituality and the author's clinical practice in this Case.
