Psychosynthesis as a spiritual practice in clinical social work

As a field, clinical social work does not have a universal model for addressing clients on a spiritual level. This study introduces psychosynthesis psychotherapy, a dynamic method of facilitating introspective recognition of previous self-constructs and reconstruction of the personality around the essence of the human being in a process that can forge a spiritual connection with a higher self. This study examines the theoretical basis of psychosynthesis, which is rooted in transpersonal and humanistic psychology. A case study is presented that focuses on one integral step of psychosynthesis, known as self-disidentification, illustrated in a clinical setting.
