| Summary: | Concerns exist about the ability of master's level counseling students to competently address religious and spiritual issues in counseling after graduation. This is relevant to field experience supervisors, as religious and spiritual issues are most likely to surface during practicum and internship. Supervisors are encouraged to find ways to address such issues systematically and intentionally as opposed to the haphazard manner in which these issues often arise. The current study was conducted to assess the frequency that spiritual and religious issues were addressed during practicum and internship supervision in faith-based master's level counseling programs. The results indicated that at best, religious and spiritual issues are occasionally discussed. Based on the results of the study, a discussion is included with consideration for potential barriers, possible profession-wide solutions, comparing and evaluating current models for addressing religious/spiritual issues, and supervision models focused more specifically on integrating a Christian worldview into the supervision experience. |
