Summary: | "A Psychological Handbook for Spiritual Directors presents practical guidance for spiritual directors. Seldom is spiritual direction simply a religious matter. Frequenetly, psychological difficulties also surface. This handbook helps the director to recognize and deal with such problems. A Psychological Handbook for Spiritual Directors grew out of Father Evoy's many years of experiences as both spiritual director and licensed psychologist. He found that a good number of those who came for spiritual direction were also hurting psychologically. In this book he deals with over a hundred situations ranging from anger and dependency, to self-sabotage. For each situation, he presents a case, offers a psychological interpretation and concludes with practial suggestions. What emerges is a hignly useful compendium of practical principles for spiritual directors."--Back cover. |
