Taylor and Francis Close, H: Ceremonies for Spiritual Healing and Growth

Ceremonies can be a powerful means to help individuals through life transitions like marriage, the death of a loved one, or even a commitment to stop smoking-to tap into the deepest resources within to help them deal with difficulties and mine the faith needed to heal and grow. Ceremonies for Spiritual Healing and Growth provides ceremonies for several types of life events to help patients or parishioners through difficult personal change and loss. Each ceremony can help a person of any age reach a deeper understanding of a particular event that is normally unreachable through mere words or logic. Respected author and innovator in pastoral counseling Henry Close provides therapists and pastoral counselors with the tools to use his carefully crafted ceremonies-or create their own-to help individuals and families heal and grow.
