Forgiveness as a Therapeutic ProcessA LIVE, INTERACTIVE, VIRTUAL Workshop
for Mental Health Clinicians Presented by Andrea Mathews, MA, LPCFriday, FEBRUARY 3, 2023 | 10 am - 3 pm $100

Carl Jung tells us, in Modern Man in Search of a Soul, that the beginning of the cure for the patient (or client) occurs when he encounters something strange arising from his own psyche to face him, something which cannot be understood as his ego or his identity and, therefore, cannot be controlled (p. 248). This will prove to be his first encounter with the Self.

Discussions about forgiveness are generally held only in religious or spiritual settings. In most religions, forgiveness is commonly seen as an important component of communion with the divine. Is it possible that forgiveness may also be an important component of the therapeutic endeavor? If so, how can we, as clinicians facilitate a healthy forgiveness process, while remaining within the parameters of ethics and the core competencies for addressing religious and spiritual issues?
