Abstract

ABSTRACT As the counseling profession has increased focus on spiritual integration into counseling sessions, such integration brings necessary attention to professional ethics. While ethical guidelines mandate that counselors not impose values on clients, this has oftentimes been confused with the false idea that counselors who are Christian may not or cannot practice ethically due to potential conflicts between ethical practice and religious beliefs. This study helps explore professional counselors’ understanding of the integration of Christianity into professional counseling. Such an understanding may help correct biases regarding ethical use of Christianity in professional mental health counseling.

来自基督教世界观的专业咨询

随着心理咨询行业越来越关注心理咨询过程中的精神整合，这种整合也带来了对职业道德的必要关注。虽然道德准则要求咨询师不要把价值观强加给客户，但这常常与一种错误的想法相混淆，即基督徒咨询师可能不会或不能按照道德行事，因为道德实践与宗教信仰之间存在潜在的冲突。本研究有助于探讨职业咨询师对基督教融入职业咨询的理解。这样的理解可能有助于纠正关于在专业心理健康咨询中伦理地使用基督教的偏见。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Spirituality in Mental Health is an interdisciplinary professional journal (retiled from American Journal of Pastoral Counseling to better reflect its broader scope) that is devoted to the scholarly study of spirituality as a resource for counseling and psychotherapeutic disciplines. This peer-reviewed quarterly journal seeks to enhance the understanding of spirituality as a core component of human well-being in individual, relational, and communal life. Leading authorities provide insights into research and effective therapy in an interdisciplinary dialog that crosses the disciplines of psychology, spirituality, theology, sociology, cultural analysis, and other fields.
