GROUP PSYCHOLOGICAL COUNSELING PRACTICES - Psycho-Spiritual Development Guide

Counseling with groups encourages clients to help each other, encourages cooperation, guides them to take steps in problem solving, provides opportunities for them to experience new and different experiences in relationships, and is intended for the continuous development of both the individual and the group to be monitored by the counselor and used effectively. It is a dynamic process that provides the necessary resources. Group counseling is a powerful and effective therapeutic process that supports the mental health and psychological well-being of clients.
In terms of psychological well-being and mental health, it is extremely important for people to know their own self and become free. Self-knowledge and liberation can only be possible when the physical/biological existence of man meets and integrates with his spirituality. Spirituality cannot be thought of independently of meaning in life. Victor Frankl states that the search for meaning is innate and is a natural and healthy motive of human life.
The main purpose of this book is to accompany people in their journey of self-discovery and self-realization by supporting their spiritual development. In this book in your hand, spiritually oriented group counseling practices for adolescents, youth and adults are included. In the book, examples of how counseling approaches such as Logotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reality Therapy, Positive Psychology, Humanistic Psychology, Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Awareness Therapy, and Art Therapy can be handled from a psychospiritual perspective are presented.
