“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.”
Faith, spirituality, and religiosity are important facets of lived experiences that are vital for social workers to consider in their evidenced-based practice (Oxhandler et al., 2021). While approaching spirituality as a clinician can introduce complexity to personal and professional experiences, many helpers report that pursuing a sacred focus has increased mental health flourishing in a variety of areas (Oxhandler, 2022). Social Workers have provided several tools to assess spirituality and spiritual strengths in clients, along with accompanying suggested interventions to allow for self-exploration among populations (Hodge, 2000, 2001, & 2005). Additionally, special ethical consideration must be given to spirituality in social work practice as it relates to cultural humility and education, racism in religiosity, and diversity of spiritual progression (Husain et al., 2011, 2015, & 2020).
