Transforming Trauma The Benefits of Integrating Spirituality and Mental Health with Dr. David Rosmarin
For many mental health professionals, exploration into a client’s relationship with spirituality is often left out or actively avoided. Could honest and open discussions about a client’s spiritual perspective help them reconnect to themselves and others while also alleviating their symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression?
On this episode of Transforming Trauma, host Emily Ruth is honored to welcome Harvard psychologist, author, and educator David Rosmarin, PhD., to explore the connection between spirituality and mental health, modern psychology’s aversion to the topic, and the ancient Jewish wisdom behind the connections paradigm.
